I have always enjoyed M.C. Escher’s work, and the piece entitled Relativity is one of my favourites.

Then, I stumbled upon a take-off on this iconic work by a Starbucks fan.

As if that was not enough of a coincidence, I was searching for Lego yesterday and found this version of the original.

So, now I am really interested in the whole notion of user-generated content on the internet and, specifically, how this work and its underlying concept can be expanded upon or appropriated – as the case may be.

At TurboSquid, you can purchase a 3D rendering of Escher’s Relativity for only $109.00. Then what?

I guess you could animated that world.
