Escher's "Relativity" in Minecraft

Bergenco recreated MC Escher's 1951 ~~House of Stairs~~ Relativity using Minecraft, saying it took: "5 or 6 hours over 2 days. The sandstone room took the longest." Relativity- by M. C. Escher (Thanks, Fipi Lele!)

I write books. My latest is a YA science fiction novel called Homeland (it's the sequel to Little Brother). More books: Rapture of the Nerds (a novel, with Charlie Stross); With a Little Help (short stories); and The Great Big Beautiful Tomorrow (novella and nonfic). I speak all over the place and I tweet and tumble, too.

The lithograph print is called “Relativity,” not “House of Stairs.”

Hmm. I expected to se at least six intersecting planes here. Seems like someone put stairs in a corner.

This is actually quite easy to achieve. Getting sandstone is tedious however.
