M. C. Escher.
Aquí les dejo este loop de un pasillo infinito, sacado de un dibujo de M.C. Escher (uno de mis ídolos).
Por cierto si les gustan este tipo de alucinaciones, este GIF me recordó un screensaver muy bueno (llamado Lotsa Escher), con una animación igualmente infinita que pasa por varias de los obras clásicas de este gran dibujante holandés.
Dénselo…
El artista polaco polaco Feliks Konczakowsk tiene esta extraña colección de GIFs animados, especializados en zoomear objetos y dentro de loops eternos (e imposibles). Como esta dona estilo “Homero”…
Feliks Konczakowski makes everyday objects interesting by turning them into looping gifs. The Polish artist uses Adobe After Effects to make his hypnotic images, featuring objects such as cauliflowers and ears…
El artista canadiense Guillaume Lachapelle tiene estas increíbles piezas donde crea paisajes infinitos, con un poco de trucos ópticos hechos con espejos. Así el artista crea estacionamientos (como éste), pasillos, oficinas, trenes y bibliotecas que son fisicamente infinitos, con todo lo poético que esto puede interpretarse.
Ojala algún día podamos verlo en vivo…
Jorge Luis Borges imagined the universe as a library, one “composed of an indefinite and perhaps infinite number of hexagonal galleries.” 1The bookshelves in Guillaume Lachapelle’s rigorously detailed, architectural miniatures are similar imaginings of knowledge, infinity, and the meaning of books.
When Lachapelle predominantly sculpted with wood, the library was already present in his work. Take for instance the delicate shelves in Maneges (2004-2006). In 2009, he began to employ 3D printing and since, he has drafted bookshelves as white, intricately printed sculptures. Fissure, 2009, a bookshelf whose centre collapses, like quicksand, into a void; Le piège, 2009, an isolated balcony that protrudes from a bookshelf; Évasion 2, 2011, a fragile staircase that leads to a corridor library. Despite their sculptural form, these pieces never feel static. They suggest something beyond the shelves. Books are often described as gateways to other worlds and the artist Dominique Gonzalez-Foerster exemplifies this literally. In her 2013 La Bibliothèque clandestine at Palais de Tokyo what at first appears to be a bookshelf is actually a rotating door that opens into a secret gallery…
Creo que ya había compartido algo de este GIF artist conocido como Sheepfilms (al menos en su Tumblr). Pero es que su trabajo es realmente hinpotizante. Ssobre todo sus loops imposibles, de los que me declaro fan. Buen ejemplo de ello es esta Pizza infinita…

Esto me recordó a cierta portada de PinkFloyd. Otro ejemplo de creación colectiva, en el que es muy padre ver lo que hoy se puede hacer con una buena idea y con las tecnologías que hoy en día tenemos a la mano (y con la ayuda de algunos amigos)…
A few weeks ago (as of today August 2012) a friend of mine from Ohio posted a hilarious picture of himself posing next to a monitor with a picture of some un named girl. Before I even had a chance to “like” it he has already taken it down citing “Mal is pissed.”
Much to my delight 10 minutes later there was a picture of his roommate and co-worker posing with a monitor with the original picture. I thought this was so funny that I had to get in the act from all the way in Washington DC. A few more of his co-workers, and a few more of mine later, and we had tapped out our co-worker resources.
We posted this awesome image thread to facebook, and after tapping out our friend resources on facebook, we knew where we had to go with this epic troll. Reddit. A place filled with fun loving people that were equally willing to procrastinate on a lazy friday after lunch.
Less than 24 hours later, we had 55 pictures in the series and 1.8 million imgur views.
We brought this series back to Mal, and her original reaction changed to thinking it was worth it for the laughs, and finished out the series with her last post.
Here’s the final album…
