Thank you for a very enjoyable seminar in NYC.
As you discussed Flatland in the context of both the printed page and your sculpture, I was struck by the similarity of the attempt to help the mind escape the boundaries of the printed page via good design and the struggle of Edwin Abbot’s “humble native of Flatland” to escape the literal boundaries of his two-dimensional world.
Is the comparison intentional?
