  1. A very fascinating video. It breaks down Escher's famous Print Gallery to show how it was created mathematically. It also shows what would appear in that round blank space in the middle of the drawing.

  6. Games where space does not function as in does in our real world. Such games are celebrated for their mind-bending puzzles, psychedelic 3D visuals, and surreal exploration.

    No Steam tag for such games currently. Should it be added? If you think so, here is an initiative to add it (and also a big list)! It seems Steam add tags when they are used by many people, so just add the "space bending" tags!

  7. Il genio di #Escher ha raffigurato innumerevoli scorci del nostro bellissimo paese, ma questo non è molto conosciuto: si tratta di #Opi .

    Opi è un paesino #abruzzese immerso nel #parconazionaleabruzzo, tra #VillettaBarrea e #Pescasseroli.

    Ogni volta che lo attraverso per andare sul valico di Forca D'Acero (in mezzo a dei faggeti mozzafiato) o per andare verso #CasteldiSangro, ripenso a questo disegno del maestro olandese che lo inquadra appeso ad uno sperone geometrico di roccia.

  8. Das Ganze gibt es natürlich auch als Animation. Im Computer kann durchaus auf der Treppe im Kreis gegangen werden.
    Betrachtet man die Szene aus einer anderen Perspektive, so kann man sehen, dass die Figürchen von der höchsten Stufe auf die niedrigste springen müssen und umgekehrt. Und das natürlich ohne Zeitverzug.

  9. Die Konstruktion der Escher-Treppe: Links aus der "Escher-Perspektive" gesehen, rechts aus einer beliebigen anderen Richtung.
    Die optische Täuschung ist ein Phänomen der Perspektive, die Treppe existiert in der Realität.

    Für Besserwisser: Die Treppe muss natürlich oben ein wenig schmaler sein als unten, damit die Stufen in der Perspektive zusammenpassen

  10. Dieses Poster der Escher-Treppe*) hängt schon seit über 50 Jahren in meiner Wohnung.
    Und schon immer wollte ich dieses Gebäude bauen.

    Ja, das geht, denn diese Treppe ist real - das Einzige, was man nicht kann, ist darauf im Kreis gehen.

    *) wird auch Penrose-Treppe genannt, da er sich ebenfalls mit dem Problem beschäftigt hat.

  11. I have a rare quiet day mostly to myself today, and I'm starting to become obsessed by the music of English (I think) band, es.cher:

    es0cher.bandcamp.com/

    Loving their sound, so original but with definite influences cropping up here and there - I really hope they gig in Dublin. 🤞🏼

  12. C'est très très cool, même si j'ai pas tout pigé les maths derrière :) youtube.com/watch?v=ldxFjLJ3rVY #escher

  13. okok hear me out.

    Escher's "Hand with Reflecting Sphere" is a self-portrait experiment, he said so himself. but I was looking at it from far away and... is that ANOTHER face in there?!

    I cannot find a single mention of this anywhere online.

    attached: the original, a blurred version, and my extremely professional annotation.

    have I National Treasured myself or is this actually real? because cha boy Escher absolutely would do this.

  14. Met verwondering gekeken naar een wiskundige 'artiest' die zo mooi laat zien hoe een andere wiskundige artiest geweldig mooie en knappe kunstwerken heeft achtergelaten.

  15. Wonderful analysis and animated recreation of M.C. Escher's "Picture Gallery" by 3B1B: youtube.com/watch?v=ldxFjLJ3rVY

    The 2003 paper by De Smit and Lenstra who as number theorists were intimately familiar with elliptic functions ("doubly periodic complex functions") at the heart of the image pub.math.leidenuniv.nl/~smitbd

    I grew up in Baarn where Escher lived for a while but only learned later that he lived on the same street! D'oh. Of course we were separated by 35 years.

  17. #Escher background. Boccaccio, ‘Des cleres et nobles femmes’ (French version of 'De mulieribus claris’), France ca. 1488-1496. BnF, Français 599, fol. 89v.

  18. My #raspberry pi travel rig, with an M.C. #Escher zoom in on my reflection in the tiny mouse.

  19. @stralau Hab noch eins für Berlin! Ich hoffe, ich habe nichts falsch gemacht.

    Start U-Bahn Vineta Treppen runter.

    U-Bahn nach Schönhauser Alle (oben auf Viadukt)

    Treppen runter zur S-Bahn

    S-Bahn nach Greifswalder Straße

    Treppen runter zur Straße

    M4 bis Antonplatz

    M13 bis Schönhauser/Bornholmer

    50 bis Vientastraße

    Treppen runter zur U-Bahn.

    Wir können jetzt versuchen, die kürzeste in Berlin zu finden. Mein Nerdtum endet hier, jetzt noch die Fahrpläne zu konsultieren …

    Vielleicht fahren wir es auch einfach mal ab. =:-) Es lebe das #Deutschlandticket.

  20. Viewing the #Escher collection from inside the palace in The Hague.

  22. "They are doomed," said Eli Sopow, a former #CivilianNember who served for 20 years on #research & #analysis teams.
    "It doesn't matter who you put in, because the #structure is all #broken . It's like one of those #Escher drawings where you see stairways going all over the place ... That's the #RCMP ."

  23. I always believed that there is a formula for successful music (Gödel, Escher, Bach: an Eternal Golden Braid). Pieces everybody loves. Because such music exists. We all know it. We all love it.

    Now you feed music theory and the biggest hits of the past into an #AI model and out comes hit after hit #elevatormusic

    #Music as we know it will die.

    #Composer (s) will die.

    #Songwriter (s) will die.

    That will be the end of #humanity.

  24. Flock of birds, inspired by the art of Escher. I think this will be my last artwork in this series.

  25. Siendo fanático de #Escher, hasta hace poco desconocía que tuvo su precursor en Gustave Doré. Varios grabados de Doré recuerdan mucho a las composiciones geométricas de Escher. #grabado #dibujo #pintura #arte

  26. Habt ihr schon die neue #Brücke am #Escher See gesehen?
    Vergangene Woche wurden die Bauteile eingehoben. Die Brücke wird vorauss. Ende August eröffnet. Dann habt ihr wieder eine super Foto-Location für das malerische Panorama des Escher Sees!

  27. Ho avuto il piacere e privilegio di vedere i #dutyfreearea dal vivo anni fa a #Ciampino (luogo ameno vicino #Roma).
    Ho saputo poi che uno dei membri del gruppo (il tastierista, si chiamava Alberto Bonomi) nel 2011 morì tragicamente in un incidente d'auto e il gruppo si sciolse.

    La vita è veramente beffarda a volte.

    Ma la musica resta.

  28. You may have caught me bitching about #version1 / agility and how awful it is... Well, we've moved to #Jira and I am so happy!

    As I told our SM, Jira feels like home, while V1 felt like an M. C. #Escher house
