Folding Rings of Eight Cubes

George Escher

A chapter in M.C. Escher’s Legacy, 2003, pp 343-352 from Springer

Abstract: Abstract My story begins in Japan, in 1981, where I received from the mathematician Naoki Yoshimoto a small puzzle consisting of eight cubes having white and black faces, stacked in the form of a larger cube, all white-colored faces on the outside. The cubes are attached by hinges to each other in such a way that they can be unfolded, then re-folded into a new configuration, which is now black on the outside.
