Géométrie de l’impossible – a series of impressive anamorphic illusions of impossible 3D shapes by French photographer Fanette Guilloud.
All were created earlier this year (there’s no digital trickery involved, just carefully composed shots taken from precise vantage points) in various locations at Toulouse, Bordeaux and in the French Alps near Lyon.
A 3D illusion by Benjamin Muzzin of the University of Art and Design in Lausanne who sez:
I wanted to explore the notion of the third dimension, with the desire to try to get out of the usual frame of a flat screen. For this, my work mainly consisted in exploring and experimenting a different device for displaying images, trying to give animations volume in space. The resulting machine works with the rotation of two screens placed back to back, creating a three-dimensional animated sequence that can be seen at 360 degrees. Due to the persistence of vision, the shapes that appear on the screen turn into kinetic light sculptures.
Mmm. Rotasty.

Mariano Tomatis applies the wonderful troll physics of the Missing Square Puzzle to a 4×6-square bar of chocolate.
Watch it. Give a knowing snort. Watch it again.

A stunning digital trompe l’oeil of aerial sequences by London-based editor and motion graphics artist Theo ‘mustardcuffins’ Tagholm who sez of it:
Hiding in plain sight, the photograph skims across the skin of reality.
Yes indeed.
Anamorphic witchcraft conjoured on flat sheets of paper by Dutch artist Ramon Bruin.
Screengrab – a recursive illusion by filmmaker Willie Witte, who sez:
An experiment in transitions. None of the visuals are computer generated. All the trickery took place literally in front of the camera.
Japanese schoolgirls, bless ’em, make a credible bid for the next Horsemaning/Hadoukening/Vadering photo meme.
Do you see how they did that?
