Description A variation of the impossible triangle
originally by Swedish artist Oscar Reutersvard

This map was featured on 2011-07-31

The Penrose Tribar, or Impossible Triangle, was first created by Oscar Reutersvärd in 1934. In the 50's, Roger Penrose recreated and popularised the concept. Later in 2006, it was recreated in electronic medium, and improved upon by romaniac. There is just so much going on aesthetically in this piece, and really, I can't even comprehend half of it.

The thing is, I don't really care if I can't understand it - regardless, it looks goddamn incredible. — squibbles

why does it look so good in the thumbnail, but when I enlarge it, I can't make it out anymore........
5/5

oh yeah, remm

I totally only found this because of that time you linked images of the thumbnails of it and a few other optical illusion maps in that thread on the forums.

So...advertising works. As long as the product is good, that is. Props.

You're fucking amazing

Really cool

you managed to use a really small number of objects to effectively create both an amazing piece of art and an amazing illusion. good work. 5/5
