Apple patent influenced by Escher

Thomas Viktil

As I was looking for any rumors around a release of a new Wacom Cintiq (if anyone knows anything, please leave a comment), I stumbled across Hrmpf, a website which has a few articles on Apple patents. One of them being about a multipoint touchscreen. I couldn’t help noticing the Escher-effect of the illustration. Look at this:

The inside of the thumb transforms to the upper side of the index finger. WTF?

Not that it changes my view on Apple. I still love my Macbook Pro! :-)
