Math, art, and the Droste effect

The mathematical structure of M.C. Escher’s painting “Print Gallery” (PDF), when applied in computer graphic software, can create all sorts of similarly distorted images and infinite zoom animations (known as The Droste Effect, named after a Dutch brand of hot chocolate).
Jos Leys’s study, A logarithmic image transformation, explains — although I certainly don’t pretend to understand a word of it!

wow, that is the first time I have seen that done a bit differently. With the broken frame it looks much more interesting.
Previous ones I have seen always have a closed frame.

MC Escher is one of the best! His concepts are unthinkable…. its pretty cool seeing it applied to digital art in that way….. :D
Is healthy…. Is very well made.
INTERSESTING… Old MC is still one of my favorites- no one has ever
out done his drawings.
That is a pretty cool effect. I think your original stuff, like the lady holding the frame is the best. It would be considered original art (I think).
