This map is based on the Butterfly Map, an Octahedral System of Projection invented by Bernard Joseph Stanislaus Cahill in the first decade of the 20th century. A redrawn version (thanks to Letty Ten Harkel) is presented here. For more information, visit: http://www.genekeyes. com/B.J.S._CAHILL_RESOURCE.html.

Note: For projects with a regional focus, a single dot has been placed in the centre of the region concerned. Projects that have a broader theoretical or conceptual focus and cannot be regionally situated are not included on the map.
