On the far edge of the map in Cryptovoxels there is a Test Island. There is no way to jump off the edge of the world itself but this edge of the test Island is the farthest jumping point. In this word I cannot carry a camera so my entire body is a camera (my head is a large format camera and body and limbs are tripod legs). Born out of a National Geographic magazine assignment to explore the far edges of virtual worlds, bringing back photographs made with virtual cameras.
