If you’re familiar with the computer game called Portal, then you know just how complex the imaginary world filled with teleportation portals can be. That’s why it’s such a perfect match for the world M.C. Escher imagined, particularly his famous Relativity piece. While we have featured a lot of artist interpretations on this classic artwork, given [...]

If it wasn’t so complicated extracting those clips, and then optimizing them [...]
