# but could someone who took
graphics or tech drawing explain to me why it is so hideously wrong

# Now I look again
the closest side seems longer/the same length as the far side, should be a little longer?

But that's if we're following renaissance perspective rules. Doesn't apply to your woo pic on b3ta I don't reckon.

now do an orthographic projection of it

# at first
but the longer you look at it the more messed up it looks, with the shading of the box bit and how the middle leg looks a bit like it's attached to the far corner

# ahhh
middle leg/far corner, that would've been it!!

*is not insane after all*

# even then, all it requires is that that leg be diagonal
not that major a warping of your perception

# that's what i was thinking... it's just normal perspective

# Yes...
but your mind can also invert the cube the man is in (not in). The darker base can become the floor of a 3 sided 'room'.

# but as implied by the presence of the man
it's just normal perspective

are his legs and he's sitting on the edge

# Does this help in any way?


Fun fact: Escher was born in the city I go to school, the whole place is riddled in all sorts of Escher artwork. A friend of mine lives in the "M.C.Escher street"

I imagine that you could turn the corner and find yourself on the ceiling, thus increasing your chances of suicide.
