curtis exodus recursion

(phew, quote enough for one day!)
What a concept-  listening!


I've seen several of these special view assemblages and they never fail to amuse me-  can't imagine the vision the artist had when he started grabbing materials!



SO, I started thinking of optical illusions and came up with a  few I found pretty fascinating.  Like I don't have anything else I should be doing.

If you missed it the other day, here's a whole bunch of illusions all wrapped into one video.  Turn the sound off if it isn't your thing and just watch the transitions-  very cool.



A photographer lines up his shot very carefully.



A tattoo artist with a sense of patterning.




Claimed to be a fraud, you can see how shadow images can fool the audience.





A continuous painted line seen from the front, and also from a step to the side.


Two portraits at once, accordion style, viewable from either side.


Escher was a master of illusion, the Illusion-Daddy if you will.



Of course we can't leave Beever out with his amazing sidewalk art, all done on flat surfaces.



Another drawing that appears to be concentric circles on a flat plane, until you step to one side and see nothing lines up.


So, after that you still need squirrels?  OK, OK:
Watch the night sky for this guy, coming in a few hours.
