I've been slowly but surely building a class on Math and Art and Escher is like 35% of the content.

what do you mean building a class?

Most people do not even know who Escher is so I am like a proud old woman that some youngster knows about Escher. You have made my whole day!

He's one of the first hosts works I saw that I felt spoke to me, on some inarticulable but very real and very visceral level. Which I am aware now is fairly cliche I suppose, but 12 year old me did not care about that and frankly current me only cares enough to note that it doesn't change how his work moves me. His use of auction particularly appeals to me, and perhaps the best (and I think probably most well known, maybe?) example is also my second favorite game of his, Art UPickish. If I remember right the first time I saw a copy of this game I was 11 or 12 and it was the cover of a game at the Syndicate forum mafia website (highly recommend btw), after my parents took us to..I believe a MacDougal exhibit, but it mightve been Dyslexicon? That detail is fuzzy.



MOD COMMENT: Have a good game folks. You can reach out to Dunya, Wilgy or me any time if need be.

That's a shame, I was going to ask you cause you can make early reads like that

I don't, I can never read stuff like this

@falcon45ca you like pushing me about reading D0s as NAI, and while this isn't D0 it feels at least similar with the silliness and whatnot, whaddya got (if anything)

That's totally fine, you don't need to agree with my read.

Oh yeah you have

I normally associate reads with like an explanation, which sounds sarcastic but I don't mean it like that

I don't know WHAT you mean I would NEVER submit an essay for an art upick (it got a 97/100)
