After seeing Buckminster Fuller’s Dymaxion World Map, a projection of the earth on a flattened icosahedron, Lilla LoCurto and Bill Outcault began working on the idea of using computer technology to transfer the details of their physical bodies onto two-dimensional surfaces. Representing three-dimensional objects on two-dimension surfaces has been a concern for artists through the centuries and the concept of simultaneity, where all views of an object are experienced at once was a major theme of the Cubists and Futurists.
