AG09: Flatland, Projections And Cartoons

Download Episode 9

In this episode, Chris and Russ take talk about building cartoons from the inside out as well every geometrically inclined geeks favorite book, Flatland.

The cartoonist of Chris' fancy is in fact "Bill Plimptom":http://www.plymptoons.com

The classic book Flatland was written by Edwin A. Abbott in 1884 and is availiable in dead trees at amazon or you can download it for free.

You can find all kinds of interesting stuff at the Library Of Congress site.

You can find a picture of Lincoln at Gettysburg here
There are all too many pictures of the Civil War dead, for example here (not for the faint of heart).

A much more fun vision of life after death is, of course, Night Of The Living Dead

You can also find Kubrick's classic 2001 here.
