Remember "the Dress"... more optical illusions to give you a headache Can't Post

The Rubik's Cube one is the one that I just cannot believe. The tiles and the table are like the chessboard we were talking about in 'The Dress' thread (on Pollantir).

The video is why I read lips (on a self-taught level) to fully comprehend what people are saying.

Oh boy. [In reply to] Can't Post

Its a mixed bag for me. The colors...hopeless. Utterly. That Rubik's Cube defies all sense to me; and the pills. Middle tile too - that's like the one you posted last time. I can tell myself its the same ALL day long. Hah. The relativity of color is a big one in my brain apparently. But the table length and the black-and-white checker thing I don't get fooled by; I can see both the illusion and the reality at the same time if that makes sense. (BTW: If you squint slightly at the checker illusion to blur the dots, the 'bending' disappears.)


But those color tricks: makes you question what IS real.


The lip-reading never loaded right; I have to try that one another time.
