MC Escher

This web page has a few short videos about Escher and his work. The videos show a slightly different view of his patterns than what we are doing in class. The interviews are in black and white and subtitled, but I suggest you watch them just to see Escher's silly beard. In one interview he talks about how he was supposed to be an architect but he chose to be a graphic artist instead. There is even a video of him making a wood carving for one of his prints, which I thought was very cool.
