projection...

"The map projection used here is the same as seen in XTPF 4, but with 32 iterations of the world map, configured in a figure-eight pattern. The singular points within the map, located at the South Pole, Yucatan (Mexico), the South Pacific, and Sudan are mostly superimposed with additional text- and image-based inclusions, several referencing the history of European colonialism. The figure-eight configuration is not entirely of one piece, given the central overlapping segment. The obscured part of the map, consisting of the greater part of two worlds worth of terrain, is reproduced in lower-contrast above the rest of the image." (Source)
