Escher in animation

 After doing a short animation based on some of M. C. Escher's drawings, it's cool to see people besides me that also get inspired by him. I just stumbled upon this awesome studio called Eterea, they've done some incredible cg animations, one of wich inspired by Escher's snakes.

This one fits like a glove to my current reading about the mathematics of complexity in Capra's Web of Life. It illustrates beautifully his point.
