Petri Dish
Lambert azimuthal equal-area projection of the world
- The center is 0° N 0° E.
- The antipode is 0° N 180° E, near Kiribati in the Pacific Ocean. That point is represented by the entire circular boundary of the map, and the ocean around that point appears along the entire boundary.

two blender models
- solid 3D terrain map in a 86x12mm cylinder
- 86 mm diameter
- 12 mm high: 1mm base + 11mm from sea level to Mt Everest peak
- centered on Lake Victoria 1°S 33°E
- NASA topographical data of earth
- we want a 3D model, not a texture image
- output STL file for use in 3D printer
- inverse of #1, to be used as a jello mold
blender process
- cylinder 1x86mm
- earth model from sea level to Mt Everest peak, 8,8489 m
- (note for Americans: 14000 feet = 4267.2 meters)
Africa
big game safari preserves:
- Tanzania, Kenya, wildebeast and zebra, Hatari 1962, filmed in Tanzania
- Zimbabwe (Rhodesia), Zambia (North Rhodesia), Jack Carr/James Reece spent time in Rhodesia

- but in Goldfinger, 1964, bond was shot with a tranq gun, at 53:57
- not to mention the nerve gas that knocked out the security force at Fort Knox, at 1:11:20
