World-Around
Bucky-Fuller's dymaxion map, around since the mid-40s. Not found in schools as it might push aside the UP-DOWN programme for the more aeronautical IN-OUT programme. Reprogramming where possible with in-out for down-up changes ones thinking easily and allows me to inform myself far more accurately within universe. It synchronises with our position on the world-sphere growing out from the centre into space, to the stars. atlas could do with it as it might alleviate his holding-the-world-up programme.
I tried this out on the word 'depressed' - pushing down and could only replace it with 'contraction'. Thus I could say a period of depression = a contraction presaging a new birth.
UP etymologically = a form of out. We can see this in BLOW-UP which I think = enlarging outwardly in an omnidirectional halo.
Though I have no evidence for this I wonder if this map has been in existence before Fuller's 1943 discovery of it.
Do check out animated versions it.

I couldn't agree with you more about "Blow-Up" a film with so many esoteric goings on's that it almost boggles the mind.
High Masonic Art that one.
The poles are key me thinks as well...Hollow Earth may make more sense now than I ever gave it credit for growing up.
