From an interview with artist Josefine Lyche (see previous post) dated March 11, 2009—
– Can you name a writer or book, fiction or theory that has inspired your works?
– Right now I am reading David Foster Wallace, which is great and inspiring. Others would be Aleister Crowley, Terence McKenna, James Joyce, J.L Borges, J.D Ballard, Stanislaw Lem, C. S. Lewis and Plato to mention some. Books, both fiction and theory are a great part of my life and work.
This journal on the date of the interview had a post about a NY Times story, ”Paris | A Show About Nothing."

From an art exhibition in Oslo last year–
The artist's description above is not in correct left-to-right order.
Actually the hyperplanes above are at left, the points at right.
Compare to "Picturing the Smallest Projective 3-Space,"
a note of mine from April 26, 1986—

Compare also to Burkard Polster's original use of
the phrase "the smallest perfect universe."
Polster's tetrahedral model of points and hyperplanes
is quite different from my own square version above.

and the artist's own photos.
