Note it’s not just the reflection, but the direct viewpoint also switches/remains stable while rotating.
It’s making use of 3 dimensions viewed in only 2 dimensions to pull off the trick. I like these viewpoint dependent “illusions”. They are getting more intricate thanks to AI…I’m still impressed by the Escher impossible shape static sculptures.

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.
