837 Drawing an impossible hex object

- Hey gang, this is Deke McClelland. … Welcome to "Deke's Techniques". … Now last week I got excited about one … of the world's most famous impossible objects, … sometimes known as the Devil's Tuning Fork, … which got me interested in this guy here. … Now if it looks a little familiar, it's not. … I invented it all by myself. … Okay, fine, I based it on some simpler ideas, … each of which I'm actually very excited … to show you right this second, in a Adobe Illustrator. … All right here's the final impossible lattice work … opened up inside Illustrator. … And just so you have a sense of how I came up with this, … I started with this very basic impossible object. … It's one of the classics, … and the idea is if you scrutinize it … you can tell this just isn't something … that could possibly exist in real life, … but it's not a hex so I can't really easily turn … it into a pattern, … which is why I elaborated on it in order … to turn it into a hexagonal object … and then I decided it would be cool …
