stevestojan Posted March 23, 2005 Posted March 23, 2005 The coolest optical illusion i have ever seen: http://web.mit.edu/persci/people/adelson/c...w_illusion.html Yes, A and B are the same exact shade and color... I actually edited this is MSPaint and cut 'A' and moved it to make sure they really are the same... they are the same.

I also did the same thing. placed it on different backgrounds, ect. That is pretty wierd.
Campy Posted March 23, 2005 Posted March 23, 2005 I've seen that 1st one before. I thought it was so cool I bookmarked it. It freaks Teresa out to the point that it made her feel nauseous, and nobody, I mean NOBODY I've shown it to believes that it's a static image.

If you'll excuse me, I'm gonna' pour me a tumbler of Glenfiddich and stare at it a while.
ajzepp Posted March 23, 2005 Posted March 23, 2005 Best illusion I've ever seen is the 'moon illusion'......that's when the moon is on the horizon and it looks HUGE. Fascinating effect......
Gavin in Va Beach Posted March 23, 2005 Posted March 23, 2005 Looks like I picked the wrong day to stop dropping acid...

Fascinating effect...... 284774[/snapback] Frame of reference and trick of atmosphere. Still, very cool. I love all these, and the great thing is, even knowing how they form, it doesnt ruin it.

If you bend over and look at the moon through your legs, it goes away

If you bend over and look at the moon through your legs, it goes away 284788[/snapback] you're right, doesnt have anything to do with the atmosphere...all about frame of reference and the fooling of your brain to think theres a change in focal distance and the like...

The atmosphere thing is why the sun appears orange on the horizon. I mixed up my celestial bodies, so sue me.

Marv Levy Posted March 23, 2005 Posted March 23, 2005 hey Gavin, got any more of that acid for these images. WOWZER!

col_forbin Posted March 23, 2005 Posted March 23, 2005 hey Gavin, got any more of that acid for these images. WOWZER! 284805[/snapback] How many out there have dropped "el cid" in the past?? Does the body and mind good. I know this much, it sure did open some doors to the world for sure. Now I'm just trying to find out how to close them.
