The following code using the Presentations package will create the contours
and map them to the Riemann sphere. The Riemann sphere even has a north
pole, zero meridian and equator lightly marked (if you want). And tooltips
from the 2D graphics are also transferred to the Riemann sphere.

I would like to extract the points from the following ContourPlot
g=ContourPlot[Arg[Gamma[x + I*y]] == 0, {x, -10, 10}, {y, -10, 10},
PlotPoints -> 100]
I can do this with
pts = First@Cases[g, x_GraphicsComplex :> First[x]]
Then I would like to map this list of points onto the Riemann sphere. The
projection is performed through
j1[x_, y_] := 2 x/(1 + x^2 + y^2)^2
j2[x_, y_] := 2 y/(1 + x^2 + y^2)^2
j3[x_, y_] := (-1 + x^2 + y^2)/(1 + x^2 + y^2)
I need to generate a list of three dimensional points (j1[x,y], j2[x,y],
j2[x,y]) from pts and plot them. I am unable to generate the list of three
dimensional points. Any help is very much appreciated.
