One of My Favorite Optical Illusions
Optical illusions are all over the web, but most are boring. One of my favorite animated optical illusions is below. Here's what you do:
- Watch the purple dots on the outside. Nothing odd there, right?
- Look in the center and peripherally look at the rotating purple dot. It's green!
- Now stare hard at the center and eventually the dots will disappear.
The human brain is a funny thing, no?
Very cool. I like these kinds of things. Now what kind of color tricks do they use to make the jet and elepahant etc., disappear from the human eye?? Wonder what else we don't really see of the reality we live in.
