Polyhedron Maps
By combining globe projection code (used for the HAR2009 shirt as well as for the Eth0:2012 Summer poster,) with polyhedron math code written for polyhedrone, I was able to create a script which projects the world map on the surface of a polyhedron. The script generates laser-cuttable polyhedral faces with notches which lock at the correct angle.
