Nice use of GEB specifically as a nod to the fantastic book Godel Escher Bach - my edition at least has exactly this shape on the cover.

I'm a fan of M.C. Escher but haven't seen this guy's work. Some of them are great.

Comment hidden because you are ignoring dag. (show it anyway)

Impressive editing of the Escher stairs. Not a lot of trickery, just clever cuts.

Reminds me of MC Escher

"Escher is my favorite MC."

LMFAHS. Never noticed that line before.

I ♥ Weird Al.

I didn't know Drew Barrymore was a singer.

MC Escher tag is missing.

I agree. I thought they did a pretty good job of bringing the "escher on steroids" aesthetic to the screen.

It was a good movie, although I did struggle with Benedict Cumberbunnys accent.

1:22 Andrew Wyeth - Christina's World
2:22 M C Escher -

2:22 and 2:47 are mc Escher.

1:22 is Wyeth "Christinas World"

I lost a sibling to suicide and it took years to stop blaming myself and to stop taking it personally. But until then it felt like a 3D Escher staircase embedded in my head that I couldn't resolve. Since then I volunteer my time to try to help depressed people however i can. But it's not about me, it's about this video and i'm glad this guy made it.

Your video, Escher and the Droste Effect, has made it into the Top 15 New Videos listing. Congratulations on your achievement. For your contribution you have been awarded 1 Power Point.

Escher! The snake eating it's own tail! (I think)

I've walked through the superstructure before- it's like something out of Escher's Relativity. The wall becomes the floor, and as such everything is designed to be either hinge or track over to it's new arrangement. Very trippy.

Nice combination of the Shepard tone, Escher inspired hyperbolic tessellation, and wiggle stereoscopy at 1:00. Geek respect.

Yeah, the supposed Romney tax cut seems to be an MC Escher drawing of everything he thinks his electoral coalition might like to hear about a tax plan, no matter how contradictory.

It's a giant tax cut that will put more money into the hands of the rich Job Creators^TM.

But it won't blow up the deficit, because we're going to eliminate deductions to make up for every penny of lost revenue.

Which deductions? We won't say, but we promise what we do won't result in a shifting of the tax burden onto working and middle class households.

It is only physically possible to keep two of those promises at the same time. Romney would have to break at least one of them -- either his promise to stuff dollars into the pockets of billionaires, his promise not to raise taxes on working- and middle-class people, or his promise not to explode the deficit.

Personally I think the only promise he'd keep is to the rich. He'd raise taxes on the poor and blow up the deficit, just so he can maximize the amount of looting rich people get to do.
