In this wordless animation we demonstrate the mathematics of binary place-value, and leave the viewer with a puzzle.

In 2d we can spin a ray about a point. If the ray contains a 1d profile, spinning gives a 2d object.
In 3d we can spin a half plane about a line. If we the half plane contains a 2d profile, spinning gives a 3d object.
In 4d we can spin a half space about a plane. If the half space contains a 3d profile, spinning gives a 4d object.

Thus, the universe is reduced to expressing order through sphere, genuine brick of the open, immeasurable, infinite, construct, which inhabits the geometry of spheres with morphodynamic, disk or spiral adjacencies. This geometric minimalism allows the existence, at the tiny thinness of the biosphere surface, of the entire morphological diversity, subject to a permanent construction and deconstruction.

There are two purposes in this animation
1. Use complex logarithm to see the relation between stereographic projection and Mercator map
2. By rotating small region to the poles we can make its image as large as we want without missing
other parts of the globe (except one point)
