Penrose stairs for fun

I apologize ahead of time if this has already been done or whatever, I sorry smile

Has any one every tried to create a Penrose stair case themed dream and then explored it? I think it would be an amazing idea that could be so much fun. For those not farmiliar with the Penrose stair caise otherwise known as the impossible stairs, here is one artists version of them.

having problems linking picture so here is wiki with the original stairs:

http://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Penrose_stairs

There are thousands of artists renditions of the stairs and there are infinite potential versions, you can even make your own. Just remember that the perspective angle of each drawing should be consider due to the fact that some stair cases are dependent on viewing angle.

It may be a good idea to look at several versions of the impossible stairs. That way you can get multiple angles and different perspectives to work from. Immerse ones self in visual depiction's of the stairs while awake. Try and sketch some Penrose stairs and create your own or a model of some other artist.

Once you have a good idea of the stairs in your head, start to visualize it as much as possible. Think about and visualize the dynamics and physics of an impossible stair case type dream room. Try and cover every technical and visual aspect. The last thing to do is to incubate the dream, get lucid and try to explore your very own Penrose impossible stairs.

I'm going to experiment with this more. Please I would love your comments, ideas, criticisms, and chat smile

I had a dream last night about this huge spiral staircase in side a big stadium would take you out to a random street and if you walked back up you can out on the street again tounge2

Closest I can say I've had to anything like the penrose stairs.

That sounds cool. Try and incubate more dreams like that, maybe mess with some stuff? I think it would just be so much fun to have a Penrose staircase type room where all the physics and dimensions are weird. Being able to chill in a room with stairs that go in circles or up walls or back to where they took you from, would Be one awesome dream in my opinion.

It is difficult to imagine paradoxes like this in 3D, although, I suppose, it should be definitely possible. This paradox was included in the movie "Inception" and it might give you an idea. You need to have great visualization skills though.

Indeed paulius and I lack those skills significantly haha which is why I'm going to have to work At this alot. The Penrose stairs in inception are the basic original ones. They seem like a good starting place as a model to go off of given how simplistic they are.
