Was just wondering what’s been going on with our Japanese professor #Akiyoshi Kitaoka lately, when I received this amazing submission from one of our fans – featuring recent work done by our favourite professor.

Here’s an illusion we already had an opportunity to experience first hand in one of our earlier posts. This is the best example I’ve seen up to date. Although it may seem intuitively impossible at first, when we take the shape of the table surface on the left and apply it to the table on [...]

Look what just landed straight to my mailbox!
