    In this paper the authors focus on two classical results in discrete geometry: the center point theorem and Tverberg's theorem. Using topological arguments, the authors establish projective versions of these theorems, interpolating between the original and the so-called ``dual'' center point and Tverberg theorems. Furthermore they give a very general theorem incorporating almost all that is known about (dual, transversal, constrained, colorful) Tverberg type theorems.
