A general philosophical question is how complex constructions and closure principles we can grasp from an intuitionistic point of view. A special case was discussed at a workshop in Uppsala in 1996: Is it possible to grasp the Mahlo-property intuitionistically? In this talk we will discuss the kind of type constructors needed in order to obtain a structure of the same classical complexity as the first recursively Mahlo ordinal. Harrington showed in 1972 that this ordinal corresponds to the complexity of computations in the Superjump, a type 3 functional described by Gandy ten years earlier. We will use typed structures of effective domains with totality to simulate computations in the Superjump. Each application of the Superjump will correspond to the application of a universe operator in type theory. The technical result will be the match of the complexity of the constructed typed structure and the computation theory of the superjump. The construction will indicate which universes we must axiomatise to exist in type theory in order to grasp the concept of Mahloness intuitionistically from a type theory perspective. \end{document}
