Originally I was going to title this "When Obscurities Collide".

I just got done with Dewdney's "The Planiverse". A little bit like the old Flatland, though more deeply thought out from a science point of view, and most notably with gravity as a factor. So just like Gravity makes our existence a bit like 2.5D for the most part, their existence is rather 1.5Dish.

The effect ends up being like The Adventures of Alfredo animations that were filler on Big Blue Disk, which in turn were a prelude to the "Stick Figure Death Theater" movement that was around in the late 90s.
