Have you ever come across an oddly stretched image on the sidewalk, only to find that it looks remarkably realistic if you stand in exactly the right spot? These sidewalk illusions employ a technique called anamorphosis - a special case of perspective art where artists represent 3D views on 2D surfaces. So how is it done? Fumiko Futamura traces the history and mathematics of perspective.
Lesson by Fumiko Futamura, animation by TED-Ed.
The moment when your art teacher gives up and uses a TedEd video... 0.o
R. Alley
Omg I'm not the only one!
Kurapika
Liek ikr, rite????¿?
R. Alley
XD. he even gives us quizzes which are scary o~o
Honestly, more teachers should. These are great.
Lol ahahahah. For real. I couldn't imagine having to explain this in the best way I know how .
I like how everytime at the end of the video they say a philosophical speech lol
that is your cow?
ron9ist
I am a cow :D
Pizaerable You look tasty.
wtf
Pizaerable :O
"If you're ever walking down the street"
Woaw you target a very specific public here
Everyday when you’re walking down the street
And I say HEY! What a wonderful kind of day when you can learn to work and play
And get along with each other
@@redberry6395 Lol 😆
Really cool demo of how some of the amazing '3-d' art that you see out there actually works! It is surprising to me how some people see math and art as opposites when in reality they have so many things in common: creativity, passion, originality.
patrickJMT cool man.
Patrick, I love how you're active on UA-cam.
patrickJMT We have a 3-D chalk festival every year here in southwestern Florida. I was always super amazed that there was so many people who could tell they were drawing in 3-D while being on the ground creating it. Well, this video just took all the magic right out of. I will still go through because it is really cool.
patrickJMT uhhh no...? Just no.
I agree
Whoever did that animation needs an award, I hope they know that that he/she did an AMAZING job
Why does that purple guy keep fainting? 😂
LotionSquad623 well, wouldn't you have a heart attack too if you thought that someone was stuck on a tiny piece of land in the middle of a giant hole in the ground?
Guess He Saw An Animatronic Or Somethin'
Postural hypotension
Another reason why Leonardo da Vinci is a very special genius.
i always had a problem understanding this , but now i understand, i love watching these videos
That moment when you study arts and still have a math class
no subject can get away from math i guess
@@oldcowbb lollll
@@oldcowbb I swear lmfao
@@oldcowbb and yet people ask where will I use maths
I've seen people doing these drawings apparently free hand... I swear they're art wizards
best video yet hope they cover more of the fine details in art
I thought it said futurama
Gabriel Akibo-Betts Me too haha
Gabriel Akibo-Betts Futurama njing! XD
Kimak kau babi! XD
Beautiful! I never find art this interesting before.
4:25 "For best view, stand here"
*stands several inches away from where you're supposed to and takes the picture there"
Me: *clap clap clap*
1:21
Video: "Including Hans Holbein--"
Me: "--goES AROUND ZE VORLD--"

That moment when you find a fellow musical theater fan outside of their natural habitats of bootleg- *ahem* slime tutorials and soundtrack videos lol
Man I love these kind of drawings!
The painting of Mona Lisa by *Leonado Da Vinci* is a best example of this!!!!
I think the most mysterious thing existing in the universe.
Great video, now i know how artists did it !, thanks Ted Ed !
thanks for the advice
they use a projector !!!! omg I thought they worked it out on the fly lmao. suddenly this is a lot less impressive
Prince Blake some do.
Well they still need to do the coloring to help it
Very interesting and worthwhile video.
A whole new woooorld
A new fantastic point of view

Already did all of that.. Thanks for these vids. They're great
TED-Ed so early :D
TED-Ed heyyyyyyyyyy boys
TED-Ed i love ur vids please make more
I like thematic of your videos, it's incredible how you never ran out of ideas! Ok, there is a whole team behind this vids but still it's awesome :D
why didnt you posted this earlier i needed this for my exams 😭😭😭
Math can open new perspectives quite literally.
Cool! I love being subbed to this channel ❤
It'd be really cool if someone made a game using anamorphosis to create unique platforming
That projector trick though... that's slick.
With a name like Fumiko Futamura you know they are a genius
Love art :D
Perspective drawing is difficult if your straight up free handing it though... like extremely difficult...
wow this is amazing!
excellent
Ted-Ed videos can make any topic interesting.
i want to create an art piece that combines every compatible technique, for example an anamorphosic piece that is also a picture that is perceived from being made up of many different objects, then make it out fo UV/ glow in the dark invisible paint, and also put it into the art piece where you put a reflecting cylinder into a certain spot on the paper on a table, and you can see a portrait of a man.
sensacional!
beautiful
sweet video!
Amazing video
Fumiko Futurama?
*Futamura
Cloe Jarozenski lo, futurama I have never watched that show before
Calm down Cloe.
Aww.
I thought i was the only one who saw it
Very helpful
Muito bom!
This reminds me of finding the QR codes in the first Watch Dogs then finding the right angle to scan them. Frustrating but fun!
Make more riddle videos plzzzzzzzzzz
The skull thingy really works. Wow
a cool modern example: the Toronto Raptors basketball team used to design their baseline art work so that the words appear to pop out from the angle of the main camera broadcasting the game.
i love drawing perspective drawings
Now imagine doing that but for it to be visible from multiple angles or even better: you see different things from different angles. I would pay to see that
that is possible with multiple colours and those old 3d glasses with the red and blue i wonder if they can make that in other colours...
When I saw the Al Hazen book I was like, "Fuck yeah my boi, Al Hazen!"
When you try to learn art and you come to know that you have to study complex Mathematics.
Ahh!!!!
Painful
that is sooo cool
Amazing... Thanks for information..... Really nice... 💕💕💕💕💕🙏🙏🙏
Wow Amazing!! I like IT!♥
Well that's one way of looking at things.
I know it's a lot more complex and expensive, but you could also use a camera and goggles that lets you see through the camera's eyes. Seems nifty to me.
which software did you use to create this awesome video
Prasad Shinde idk
Shiloh Schwartz what is idk
Wait there are 3,500 views on this vid after seconds
As I was watching this there was a video up next and I was thinking do I continue to watch this video or watch 16 twinkies get vacuum sucked
What would YOU watch
meet Brusspup!King of this art :)
4:22 that is creepy when you think about it
can you imagine walking there after getting drunk or high????
Elisa Soh nope.
You: About pavement drawings
Me, an intellectual: the mathematics of sidewalk illusions
Man! I got the basics now..... Anamorphic drawing brooming up
thank you...
1:36 if you have captions, it looks like a phallic shape.
do a video about programming
I was hoping there would be some actual equations I could use.
That mouth 3d illusion tho... 😮😶
The real illusion here is that name on the title video....Futurama. . .
Wow
this hurt my brain
FINALLY I UNDERSTAND HOW TO DO THESE GUESS WHAT IM GONNA DO NEXT
Star Wars 8 Title just got announced!
Ben Jones What?
Edward Nygma Yep, search it up :)
Ben Jones Okay but why comment that here?
Edward Nygma I'm kinda just commenting it on all my vids in my sub box ;)
Obi-Wan Jones? I wonder if he means old Ben Jones.
Good video! :)
Linnea Mysterylee you didn't even fucking watch it fully when you commented that.
Farther, not further.
0:37 WHAT IS DAT DING ON DA SIDE
???
Interesting
I was hoping to see dry and bender.
basically it teach us how to use the grid properly :D
4:15
4:32 looks like Luanne from King of the Hill
The real question is, can we draw a 4D thing in 3D?
Chair
A "4D thing" is a mathematical concept with (per our current knowledge) no connection to the real life.
1:40
there are at least ten ppl claiming that they are here first. I'll be honest.. I'm number118
I'm number 62066
How are you 62066 while I am only 62065 and commenting under your comment?
How do you even know that ur number 118?
Some Art In Island.......... i-it's a great place
so that's what happened to Baldi in his office!
huh, makes sense!
So Tromp L'oeils?
The projecting part is kind of lame.
You saved my life but it saves time
You saved my life why is that you name
le Birb you are welcome.
I love science
I thought her last name was futurama for a second.
Im suprised the greeks didnt also invent illusions? Surely they came up with everything as you always mention in your videos?
s/o to Casper the friendly ghost
Wait, so if you can simply project your image right on to the sidewalk, why bother drawing it ? :D
Art Work c because you can't just draw it like you'll normally would. It destroys the 3d effect.
Complaint drive outdoor hidden formula trial walk recruit operation.
I found impossible triangle! 4:32
All that and no mention of Esher.
Teachers, show this to your students when they complain what is the use of math.
One could say it is a matter of... perspective?...
I'll see myself out 👋
I had to read the last name twice because I thought it said Futurama.
my brain is hurting me...
Wow. The skull 💀 thingamajig really works Woahaerfgs
