I really like this because I'm also a fan of impossible objects, especially the impossible triangle. I agree though in that it is hard to find examples of where this illusion is utilized in instances other than those used simply for the sake of example (i.e. this isn't really used to increase the sale of a product or appeal of an artwork). It is difficult to implement impossible objects in the real world because they are usually 2D renderings of a 3D impossibility, but we live in a 3D world so we can only recreate them when viewed at particular angles. Still, it was interesting learning about the different types of impossible shapes that have been created over the years.
