Friday math movie: Inspirations – animation of Escher art

[16 Mar 2012]

This is a nice animation of Escher’s many ideas. There’s plenty of other math concepts thrown in for good measure. See how many you can spot. (Spoiler: The film-maker’s page on the math behind the video is excellent.)

The story behind the opening chessboard scene can be found here: Math Fairy Story.
