Flatland

In Flatland: A Romance of Many Dimensions, written and illustrated by Edwin A. Abbott in 1884, a fictional two-dimensional world is inhabited by geometric shapes. Drawing from these premises, the work exposes the « flatness » of the digital interaction where the interface is commonly hidden behind skeuomorphic effects and analog-like animations.
