This is the first compelling reason I've ever seen to have a digital picture frame. Imagine just having that swirling continuously on your wall.

I seriously want one; with the touch interactivity so any guest can play with it.

Or even better - have it playing on your big screen TV while you're entertaining guests, eating dinner, whatever... What an awesome creation!

#16This is the most beautiful use of art and technology I've ever seen. Potentially a whole new subclass of painting. Forget animating old images, I could imagine modern artists creating works of art only for this medium.

#18One of the reasons I got into the demoscene was that I wanted so badly to make a animated versions of Escher's works, particularly Metamorphosis I-III. This is seriously an amazing work; he does honor to the original painting and goes above and beyond. Simply amazing.
Did you ever get it done? There are some animated/interactive Escher pieces on http://wonderfl.net/tag/escher , but no Metamorphosis - it looks difficult to animate...

Unfortunately not. I did some experimentation early on and while I got some interesting results, I wasn't ok with releasing it unless it honored the original work. Now that I've spent a couple years honing my skills, though, it may be time to revisit it.
