"POLYSCAPE" Prototype Video: This Moving Map Displays the World in 3D

This is What a Map Should Look Like Inside of a Sci-Fi Film's Futuristic War Room. For the Installation "Polyscape", Artist Shunsaku Ishinabe Projects a Map onto a Grid of Tiles and then has those Tiles Flex Up and Down Based on the Landscape's Actual Height and Depth. When it's Displaying a Mountain, the Map Raises to a Point and When it's Displaying a Depression, the Map Sinks. Ishinabe Published a Video Demonstrating a Prototype of "Polyscape", Last Year, at which Point it already Looked Like it was in Good, Working Shape — including Some Flashy Effects that Truly Make it Look Like it's Come Out of Science Fiction.
