Using the Ptolomy map, I’ll create a 3D landscape based on the terrain indicated in the map. Then I’d take a tour of the landscape on a micro level. As the camera passes a landmark, it should pop up like a pop-up book. As you approach the equator, it turns to flames and you cant pass… maybe you can see through the flames the abominations.
I was thinking about presenting a similar map from our perspective, NZ coast goes on to end of map, as does New Guinea.
Due to the pop-up nature, I think Maya will be the best medium for creating such a map fly-thru.
