Computer Games Based on Escher’s Spatial Illusions

Scott Kim

A chapter in M.C. Escher’s Legacy, 2003, pp 366-378 from Springer

Abstract: Abstract I have always loved the way Escher invites me to participate in his worlds. In Ascending and Descending, Escher invites me to join a procession of monks as they walk around an endless staircase. In Convex and Concave he asks me to compare objects on the left with their inverted counterparts on the right. His tessellations challenge me to trace the dual logic of the curves that outline the tiles.
