Rooms painted so that if you stand in just the right place a hidden pattern emerges.

Kinda neat, although at the same time, some of them look a bit photoshopped? *shrug*

It's just some nights, you really want to go out, get some hot bitch to dump Goose down your throat and snort coke off a stripper's tits.

so not photoshopped! I saw these pics of a guy that did something like that but on sidewalks... You'd stand at the right angle and It'd look like a giant coca cola bottle was in your way, or a big hole... then you keep walking and the image stretches out. He did some really neat art!

It's not photoshopped. It's a specific school of art, whose name I forget (it's french), based upon giving the illusion that the artwork is actually a real scene.
It's very popular among certain circles. More commonly, however, the artists are contracted to do something more aesthetic and less shocking.
For instance, you have a nook somewhere in your home that looks rather dull. You could hire one such artist to paint the wall of the nook such that it appears at a glance that there's actually a window inside of it looking out onto a carnival.
The examples shown above, however, seem to take this to higher levels. Showing a total mastery both of the laws of artistic perspective as well as of geometry.
I bet there is a LOT of math and geometry involved in doing those.

Couldn't you set up a projector at the point where the scene is to be viewed from, then project the image, and trace it? That should produce an accurate result and would be easily doable by any shroomerite who wanted to re-decorate a room.... hmmmmmmm......

I think that could work, but how would you account for the focusing of the image?
If you used a projector, part of the image would always be blurry, because the surfaces would all be different distances from it.

The math and geometry is the same as in perspective painting, only used "backwards". It's called trompe l'oeil and was very popular in the Renaissance, when perspective was first invented. Nowadays you see them regularly at sports events. Advertisements in the corner of the field look good when viewed from the main camera, but when you see them from a different angle, you realise that they are painted on the field all distorted.
The way I would do this, at least indoors, would be to make a slide of the desired pattern and project it on the room from the intended viewpoint. Then trace the contours on the walls and furniture and finish the job with paint.
