I found some more Temespheres that I just had to show you guys.
Take a look at these. They were done by a guy by the name of Dick
Termes (fits doesn't it). <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />


Arching to Infinity - A cubical archway vanishes away from you in two directions.




Up is Down - As you follow the building up to their top you find yourself on the
bottom of the building again.




Checkerboard Sphere - This sphere plays with concentric circles over the sphere
which are overlapping sometimes up to three at a time. My interest was to see if
the dark and light checkerboard patterns would come out even or would a black end
up next to a black. Blacks never come out next to blacks. I was amazed.




Moving Away - -Five of the six points of perspective are swung over to one side
of the sphere. A city from above is organized to this shifted perspective. Is
the city breaking up into the sky or is the sky turning into the city?




These are sooooo cool. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

Hey Tsel,
I looked up where you got those nice pictures from.
They are really candy for the eyes! Thanx <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wave.gif" alt="" />
If you don't mind, I'll post a link to that site?
The Great Illusion

These were done by one of my favorite artists, Josephine Wall.

Witnesses working at a show of John Pugh's paintings reported three separate
occassions where art patrons inadvertently broke wine glasses and spilled wine or
beer as a result of trying to set their glass or mug on an illusionary shelf of a
painted secret garden niche.

Soon after the mural was complete a woman employee that worked upstairs across
the street from Taylor Hall called the administration and seriously complained
and asked when they were going to fix the wall.

It was also reported by the C.S.U.C. public affairs officer Bob Pentzer that
after the completion of the Taylor Hall project several rear-end accidents were
reported occuring at the stop sign adjacent to the mural because motorists were
distracted while viewing the broken wall illusion.
