Does anyone like anamorphic art?

I'm not an artist, but I really find this intriguing.

A couple samples if your not familiar:

Yeah, Escher type stuff. It rocks. I wish I had the imagination for it.

I need to explore my artistic side. Right now I just use it for work. Its one of those things I alway think about doing but never do - like taking a painting or sculpture class. I don't know, I have a weird block, like a writers block. One day I just put down my sketchbook and never picked it up again. I can't seem to do art for fun anymore. I'm sure there's some psychological reason for it.

That's really cool. I've heard about anamorphic art, but I've never seen it in real life. I would really like to.

Obviously a little math, geometry, and artistic ability involved:

I would love to see a picture of me projected 360 degrees onto a flat surface like that. That would represent how I usually feel.
