So I went to cinema the other day, and we saw Cloverfield. We picked the movie by accident, and funny coincidence is that I posted an illusion poster related to it few days ago. I really liked the flick, but the open-end, without any background explanation puzzles me. Anyone has info how the monster came [...]

Impossible structures were mostly popularized by M.C.Escher, and since then many artists try to match his genius. Some manage to get close, while others create their own visions of impossible structures only influenced by Escher. From recently, there are even real life 3D models that look impossible from certain point of view. While they obey [...]

Wow! Can’t believe I haven’t reported this one yet. Apparently the work you see below is in a way similar to Julian Beever’s artistic sidewalk drawings, only with one exception – it’s done with mosaic technique (when the artist creates an image out of many small different colored tiles).

In fact, she probably wouldn’t move an inch. Tell me, how can this be? Did you spot the illusion? It took me a minute [...]

Laura Ours sent me this funny-looking photo she found, browsing rhythmic gymnastics on Yahoo! news. Where did the head got lost? This girl sure knows how to do gymnastics, but she obviously forgot to look after her body parts. Can we help her locate her missing piece? I can assure you there is no photoshop [...]
