Terrye, look at the shadows. It's an optical illusion that only works in a photograph; the real object has carefully-chosen breaks to make everything appear to join.
ok, followed the 'shadows' suggestion, and it it's real, there are two overhead light sources, because the weird span has an acute-angle shadow of the left terminus--yet the two cross-spans end-on are not lit, as they would be, by the same source.
I actually built that in shop, back in the acid days.
ReplyDeleteBuddy, you just remember building it.

ReplyDeleteyes, I see.
ReplyDeleteI don't think there is a 'real object' --pure digital graphic, tho the watch & the graph paper are real, no doubt.
ReplyDeleteSpeaking of real and digital, are the pictures of a truck trailer (one is of Pepsi crates defying gravity) in general circulation?

ReplyDeleteNope.
Again, look at the shadows: there aren't enough shadows on the cross pieces.
Seneca,
ReplyDeleteNow that's a nice link I didn't know about. I would so prefer to see a post on this to endless rehashes of other blogs' political opinions.
