Conceived by two Belgian jurists, Paul Otlet (1868-1944), father of modern documentation and indexing techniques, and Henri La Fontaine (1854-1943), Nobel Peace Prize winner in 1910, the Mundaneum is considered as a precursor of network-based knowledge systems and of the Internet itself. A massive center for documentation and communication, the Mundaneum aimed at hosting all human knowledge and facilitating worldwide sharing through the connection of universities, governmental institutions, and individuals. As such it was also meant to embody the ideal of promoting peace among nations.

Project from Peder Norrby is an IphoneX visual toy using TrueDepth facetracking to produce a Trompe-l'œil effect of depth from the position of your head:

Yes it’s ARKit face tracking and #madewithunity … basically non-symmetric camera frustum / off-axis projection.

The app is currently in review, but Peder plans to release the code to Github in the future for developers to experiment with.
