Mr. Lego-builder Posted July 5, 2005 Posted July 5, 2005 Hahaha! Good one. |-D Isn't it one of those "impossible" puzzles? Quote
Governor Mister Phes Posted July 8, 2005 Governor Posted July 8, 2005 Here's the original... Never heard of the elephant one though... Quote
xwingyoda Posted July 8, 2005 Posted July 8, 2005 My answer is NONE of them: its neither circular nor square !!!!!!!! Its just a beautifull image devoid of any architectural reason ;) Quote
Governor Mister Phes Posted July 8, 2005 Governor Posted July 8, 2005 Its creator was indecisive so they made it appear both ways... Quote
Hobbes Posted July 8, 2005 Posted July 8, 2005 Here's the original...[image snipped] Never heard of the elephant one though... I'm pretty sure the inspiration for the picture jngunsw posted was a drawing of Mauris Cornelis (or MC) Escher who is known for this type of optical illusions drawings. One of his most famous drawings would be without doubt this one: Quote
Governor Mister Phes Posted July 8, 2005 Governor Posted July 8, 2005 I was affraid it would was going to come to this... Quote
Hobbes Posted July 8, 2005 Posted July 8, 2005 Well, that was obvious. I don't see anything to be afraid of in it. Quote
Governor Mister Phes Posted July 8, 2005 Governor Posted July 8, 2005 Have you ever had to frequently write essays and do projects relating to artists, Hobbes? Quote
Governor Mister Phes Posted July 8, 2005 Governor Posted July 8, 2005 For me it is a very real threat! Quote
Khorne Posted July 8, 2005 Posted July 8, 2005 It's both. If you look to the upper part: It's square. ________________________ Take a look to the lower part: You see: a Greek captian, but you also see that it's circular. There you go, the puzzle is solved *satis* . *On to new adventures* Quote
Hobbes Posted July 8, 2005 Posted July 8, 2005 For me it is a very real threat! Well, no offense, but don't post in that thread then. Ignore it. That so hard? AFAIK there's no mandatory post-in-every-thread rule on EB, is there? Quote
Governor Mister Phes Posted July 8, 2005 Governor Posted July 8, 2005 Hobbes, you're taking my posts too seriously! Maybe you need some fresh air! Quote
Hobbes Posted July 8, 2005 Posted July 8, 2005 Well, since you post so much your posts sometimes are difficult to figure out, mister_phes. But what with the fresh air you could be right: being on sick-leave and in bed for 3 days could have affected me somewhat... Quote
Governor Mister Phes Posted July 8, 2005 Governor Posted July 8, 2005 I've cut down a lot actually and today most of my posts have been responding to your posts in just 3 threads! But do get well soon! Quote
jonfett Posted July 8, 2005 Posted July 8, 2005 Ever seen this? There are some more Lego optical illusions which I have seen before, but I can't find them right now.. :/ Jon. Quote
Governor Mister Phes Posted July 9, 2005 Governor Posted July 9, 2005 Awesome! Someone try to build that! Quote
Sarg_Kulo Posted July 10, 2005 Posted July 10, 2005 I would *glasses* But I don't think the pieces exist. Quote
