Thread: Dick Terme's Termespheres: Absolutely Amazing.

I was browsing the internet looking for something optical illusion related and I stumbled across a site of an artist named Dick Termes. He creates termespheres; Painted spheres/globes with SUCh a perspective so that it always makes a correct picture. If you spin the ball around it's vertical axis the changing image on the ball strangely looks like a lens looking around the painted scene in 360 degrees instead of looking at a rotating ball. It's really amazing and in order to understand you'd have to see for yourself.

And the site that offers further information on the artist, his work and how exactly he painted on the spheres a "correct" undistorted scene using the 6 piont perspective. www.termespheres.com

I am currently trying to get my head around how to make my own termesphere's. I'm beginning to get it, but it's quite difficult.

Enjoypeople, I'm sure you will.
