... this is that other design.

Escher seems to be getting a lot of play lately.

weird

Escher will always get my vote!

I <3 Escher

that's rad! great job on this!

$5

ahhhh i love escher.

Stop ripping off MC's designs. Be your own designer.

i would like it on another colour and centered. AND even though i do like escher, i still have to say it's not unique enough that i'd buy it.

way too much copied Escher art

way too little of your own work

escher did this idea much better himself - http://www.postershop.co.uk/Escher-MC/Escher-MC-Magic-Mirror-7400020.html for example - and there are many, many more

I've never wanted to rip of the work of Escher, of courso that he did it much better...is just a little tribute to him.

I think the design would look a lot better on the center of the shirt.

I'm not quite sure why people keep posting negative comments, this is a parody of one of escher's works, not a rip, geez, where where you kids when they passed out the pop culture refrence comprehension?

is this copyright infringment?

i'd like it better if the escaping lizard was from the top row of lizards

First off, lets define parody. I give you exhibit A:



http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parody



done.

The key word is imitate - and you did not imitate. You directly appropriated copywritten material without permission. And now, exhibit B, the appropriated material:



http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image:Escher%27s_Reptiles.jpg



I believe we have clear copyright infringement here.

Oh, and to leojsoap, there's a difference between pop culture reference and pop culture appropriation. Clearly people recognized this as Escher's work. But some of us also recognize that even as a "tribute" to Escher, this shirt still violates not only copyright law, but also a designer's responsibility to be creative. Even if the concept isn't completely original (tesselations as a concept, in this case), the designer still should have the integrity to design something that doesn't clearly use someone else's exact material. Exact. Material.



So to sum up, when the pop culture reference comprehension was passed out, I was designing my own stuff -- not behind bars.

i absolutely love the escher "tribute". Someone's gotta translate his work to something wearable besides lousy souvenir museum store t-shirts.

I thought I saw those reptiles somewhere.

Then i went to this link:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image:Escher%27s_Reptiles.jpg



And that was where I saw them

That picture is on the wall in the drama room at my school.

I like it best on the bottom of the shirt.

I think the idea is quite original.

If you had slapped the pattern on the shirt and called it a day, I'd be cranky.

But I think the escaping lizard is what makes it DIFFERENT.

Thus, FUNNY.



That being said,

I am not a fan of the colors red/orange/yellow ... (I'm more of a cooler-color person) but the idea is hilarious. And I'd wear it anyway. $4

The colors are ugly.

It's not hilarious at all...you're probably one of the dumbasses who laughs in the movie theatre over nothing. I hate that fucker...

i love this shirt esp the lizard climbing over the wall. $5

That Escher picture was on my Algebra or Geometry book cover, can't remember which.

...Mossaia, what a useless comment. (Most likely from a useless person.)

Yes, maybe i've laughed over nothing...that´s probably true.

I think that your comment its valid...but for all the people that want to know why you have so much knowledge about useless things...i recomend that check out this:

...its just a thoght...killer

P.D: Check out the averages scores.......thats killer.

Kick f*cking ass

Center placement looks best.

you couldve at least made the lizard crawling away look like one of the escher reptiles, it just doesnt look kocher with the two drawing styles......2 for the effort though

Okay, I've submitted several more t-shirts...I just now got flash at home. Average is actually pretty good considering I've never taken a graphic designs class for flash... :)

would of liked it if you would have atleast MENTIONED escher, since your entire premes(sp) is based on him.

I'd rethink the placement. but the concept is great.

coulda made it metamorphasize...
