What happened to the Mathematical and Scientific art movement after [[M. C. Escher|MC Escher]]? It went underground.  
What happened to the Mathematical and Scientific art movement after [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/M._C._Escher MC Escher]? It went underground.  


In this episode of the Portal, [[Eric Weinstein|Eric]] begins tracking down the leaders of this hidden movement; one that is smuggling higher level science into transcendent art forms. Eric had to coax one the movement’s foremost members, [[London Tsai]], to come out of obscurity where he had been preserving his mathematical art in sarcophagi of unopened bubble wrap sitting for decades in various New York City studios.

London is just the first of these New Escherians we’ll be profiling. These modern day Prometheans are stealing higher level mathematics from the professorial priesthood replacing the Seraphim and Cherubs of antiquity with topological paintings, protein sculptures, and light symphonies that speak to our hearts, minds and desires for transcendence. The podcast will be released later with video showing a taste of Tsai's groundbreaking work.
