Nothing much to add to it… as it’s rather, well, mundane and pointless. But I must share it! Hope y’all enjoy.
Really cool! Thanks for sharing.
Wow. That’s now one of my favorite optical illusions.
It’s interesting to pay attention to which dots disappear; at first I could only see the dots on the bottom, and with each rotation one dot on each side disappeared. At one point, all of the dots disappeared but as the “green” dot rotated around, they came back again, one at a time, like they were being erased and then redrawn.
Spooky. I’m going to show this to all my friends!
Ooooooh, I like that one.
I’m also fond of this one.
This is the kind of thing that keeps me off of drugs.
These illusions demonstrate that our brain has bugs, or perhaps design flaws. Maybe the next version will some of these kinks worked out.
How the fuck does that work??
I believe it’s due to persistence of vision. For me, the dots fade until and unless I blink, in which case they “reappear”. Nifty.
Finn, you visit ColegeHumor?
Not all the pink dots disappeared for me, but I did get a nifty illusion where a pink dot was “chasing” the green dot around the circle. I think I looked away too soon.
You think that’s weird? Try this.
Two days later, and I still see the effect (it’s jut very vague).
That’s so cool!
gee thanks everyone for those 3 cool links
and for the after images causing me to retype every word in this post 3 times to correct the spelling errors caused by thick black horizontal and verticle lines all over mmy keyboard
The after images go away. But still the illusion persists. Quite odd.
Truth be told, I’m not even sure what that is.
