Received this wonderful 1974 Colombian stamp featuring Andean cock-of-the-rock (Rupicola peruviana). The stamp celebrates 100 years of the Universal Postal Union in Bern, Switzerland. Note the Droste effect in the design.

Pretty please quote repost your recursive art with the Droste effect! It doesn't matter if it's original or fanart, and any medium is welcome as long as it's your own art.

I was laying on the sofa this afternoon, scrolling some old posts of this blog, when the couple across the street, came out on their balcony for a smoke. I was able to snap a double photo of them!

When I was around five, I had the notion in my head that everyone in this world collects something! Now, this quaint notion naturally led me to believe that I would be remiss not to find something to collect myself! What I settled on was not any thing, but a concept: I had a picture book on the cover of which was drawn a baby, who sat and read a copy of that very same book. So there was an infinite chain of babies on this book diminishing in size as you go deeper! I decided that this is what I would collect, these "thing in a thing in a thing in a things."

My collection grew over time to include many many things like: a specific media poster that I cannot remember exactly, a drawing I made of my hand drawing the drawing that I was drawing just then, standing between two parallel mirrors, the definitions of "Canyon" and "Gorge" in the copy of the Oxford English Dictionary that I had which cyclically referred to one another, "Horton Hears a Who!" but with the idea that every world has dandelion fluff that houses a whole other world, certain fractals (like the Sierpiński triangle, fractal trees, and the Cantor set), a zoom meeting screen-share of the meeting itself, the Taylor series expansion of e raised to the x, and so on! Admittedly, some of these are rather conceptual, and not as tangible as the very first "thing in a thing in a thing in a thing" that inspired this collection, but I mentally store away new items that I spot which fit this set.

Now, I have found out just today that my "thing in a thing in a thing in a things" have a name: The Droste effect! I am overjoyed that the wider world knows of these things that I like to collect, and quite pleased that they are named; At the same time, it occurs to me that it is only natural that people would have noticed and named this beautiful effect that is always a delightful surprise when one observes it!

This is all to say that this weird little part of me that has been inside me from my early childhood has suddenly been exposed to the world, and I think that it makes me happy because I can share it with everyone! I hope I can proudly show others now: "Look! Here's my collection of 'Thing in a thing in a thing in a things.' Now, show me your collection!"

i’ve been obsessed with this concept for possibly my entire life and now i have a whole bunch of words for it. not that using -ception to colloquially refer to it is wrong but it’s not the most accurate. i love learning i love wikipedia

Georges Perec verhaalt over het Droste-effect

bron beeld: lasfuriasmagazine.com In de week dat bekend werd dat chocolademaker Droste werd overgenomen, stuit ik in een novelle op het Droste-effect. Het Droste-effect is een afbeelding die zich herhaalt en steeds kleiner wordt, bekend geworden omdat het zich toonde op het Droste-blik.
