Impossible!

I freaking got it!

While wasting my time staring at Surrealist Artists inspired by Escher's work, I found the common thread!

Almost all of them, at some point or another, went back to an exploration of Escher's impossible structures.  And when the "title" of our project is The Fall of the HOUSE of Escher...why didn't I jump right up and say, "OH Hey guys, let me focus on Escher's explorations in architecture!"  Especially considering the fact that we do need to build a set at some point...maybe this can give us some ideas!

First, an iFrame of what this "Impossible" crap is:



Now how about an idea of how to build some of Escher's shit fo' reals:



Also, just for some video:


And how about this one that plays with a "real-life" Escher Waterfall:

Stop thinking too hard, here's the sculpture from another angle with paper on the ledges:

SO yea...I think it would be cool to build the "impossible."

Stairs going in all different orientations, projections moving where gravity won't allow us to go, water...everywhere!
