 Cézanne attempted the impossible: to paint different compositions using only one canvas. Yet, the end result achieved in 1893 was a surprisingly balanced but disjointed perspective, precisely because of the unbalanced parts which were all drawn using a slightly different vantage point. 
 
-Cézanne's _Le panier de pommes_ challenged the idea of linear perspective. Painters had been employing a single vantage point for centuries to create the illusion of space and dept. Everyone just assumed it was impossible to without resorting to another canvas. This achievement earned Cézanne the title of "The Father of Modern Art", as his paintings paved the way for Fauvism and especially Pablo Picasso's and Georges Braque's Cubism art movement.

-What is the greatest common divisor between Eumenes' reaction to being cut off from Ptolemy's papyrus supplies, Paul Cézanne's stubbornness to cling onto painting multiple viewpoints on a single canvas, and id Software's decision to move a majority of the development process onto NeXT computers? All three examples showcase a challenge to overcome, and all three result in radical forward-thinking inventions.

 These challenges can be seen as _constraints_. Pergamon suddenly lost access to papyrus. How to supply paper to scholars to keep on feeding the library and expand cultural and political influence? Cézanne refused to paint two vantage points on two canvases. How to paint multiple angles using only one canvas? Carmack and his team refused to work with lower-resolution and slower hardware. How to (partially) get rid of hardware constraints?
