True. And a virtual reality moebius strip with virtual reality crops sprouting out of it all the way around, with a smiley face crop-circle isn't a real crop circle either, but it's what I whipped up in Maya last night. It isn't exactly great art, since to make it photo-realistic would take many minutes or hours per frame to render on the computer, instead of 20-30 seconds per frame, and it takes a much work to set parameters like lighting and textures to make it potentially look real, BEFORE you start the render process (which I didn't bother to do, so it's very cartoony looking), but you get my point. I'm thinking of making a VR walkthrough of it and then let the camera fly up so you can see the crop circle itself from the air. What would be cute would be to have a flying saucer fly up and sign the crop circle...
