Are you familiar with M.C. Escher’s work? Most certainly! Maybe you don’t know it but you are. Let’s put it this way? Are you a family guy fan? Of course you are. I don’t remember the season or the episode number, but its the one where Brian goes back to college. And at some point in the episode there is a painting on the wall with 2 hands drawing each other? remember? yes you do that’s one of M.C.Escher most famous pieces.
Anyway if you still don’t know what am i talking about, M.C. Escher was a Dutch graphic artist. He is known for his often mathematically inspired woodcuts, lithographs and mezzotints. These feature impossible constructions, explorations of infinity, architecture and tessellations. Basically his amazing work is built around impossible objects such as the Necker cube and the Penrose triangle.
Now since i don’t own a PSP or a PS3 for that matter ( i know, im lame
) i didn’t know about this badass game that is available for them. OMFG i am speechless. It is called ECHOCHROME and you help your guy/girl well robot/stickman walk it’s path through a M.C. Escher univers scene. I can’t describe it in greater detail because like i said , my sorry ass dont own a PSP or a PS3 but i belive that this video will give you a feeling of what is all about….. gotta get my hands on this one :D:D:D
