Actually I thought of that before posting the link to that strobe thing but there's a warning on the guy's site before you click on it so didn't think it would be necessary. I'll see if maybe Bryan or someone can change the thread title.

I hope it didn't affect you?

With enough lego bricks and the right camera angle, yes it is The below image is not photoshopped, and the link explains how it's done

Visual Perceptions

These ones I have had for a while.
Perception involves bottom-up-processing where data is fed to the brain and top-down- processing which begins with the individual’s expectations and knowledge.
Perception is top-down-processing it is construed not experienced. This is why experience plays a large role in object recognition.
If we look at an ambiguous image and through our experiences we are predisposed to see a particular type of figure at this will effect how we view the figure.

Recently at theory called recognition by components has been postulated, this theory states that people perceive and categorize objects by first breaking them down into elementary units. Perceptual illusions are the result of the brains efforts to organize percepts.

Optical illusions were the coolest part of my cognitive psych class. Since we all view our world through our experiences everybody has a different take. Lets say you have 10 witnesses to a crime, chances are you will get several versions of what happened, this is why witness identification of a criminal can be unreliable. There have been cases where innocent people went to jail based on witness or victim identification. Makes you think.

 

[Dinahnana]

Do you see gray areas between the squares?

Yes I do. This is cool and doesnt hurt my eyes.

Fed Ex Logo

The FedEx logo is a great optical illusion. For years I just saw the FedEx logo and never noticed the arrow until it was pointed out to me. Now I cannot unsee it.

I agree with Slotmonster. My dirty mind automatically went to two people getting it on! I cant see Jesus though so I'm wondering what that says about me.

Watch Your Step!
This guy is brilliant. You can google him on line for tons of his amazing chalk art.

He spent five days, working 12 hours a day, to create the 250 square metre image of the crevasse, which, viewed from the correct angle, appears to be 3D. He then persuaded passers-by to complete the illusion by pretending the gaping hole was real.

‘I wanted to play with positives and negatives to encourage people to think twice about everything they see,’ he said. ‘It was a very scary scene, but when people saw it they had great fun playing on it and pretending to fall into the earth. ‘I like to think that later, when they returned home, they might reflect more on what a frightening scenario it was and say, “Wow, that was actually pretty scary.”


Great Crevase Edgar Mueller. Hard work: Together with up to five assistants, Mueller painted all day long from sunrise to sunset.

The picture appeared on the East Pier in Dun Laoghaire , Ireland , as part of the town's Festival of World Cultures.

Me too please... headmelty.

It actually reminds me of a riddle I love. I know this is the optical illusion thread but I'm going to share anyway. This is a good one for you Maths whizzes out there.

...


Three men go to a restaurant for dinner. When the meal is over the waiter comes with a bill for $30, so each of the men pays $10 each.

As the waiter is walking away from the table he realizes he's made a mistake on the bill and owes them back $5, but you cant evenly divide $5 between three people... so he comes up with a plan. he takes two dollars and puts it in his pocket, then returns to the table, explains there was a problem with the bill and gives the men $1 back each.

so.... each of the men has paid $10 and then been given back $1 by the waiter... which is the same thing as paying $9. With me so far?

Three $9 payments makes $27. Add the $2 the waiter took and you only get $29. Where did the extra dollar go?

Taxes!

Actually the way it's explained, there isn't a dollar missing, there are two extra dollars thrown in. Three $9 payments does make $27, but you subtract the $2 the waiter stole.

10+10+10=30
10+10+10=25+3+2
subtract 3 from both sides
9+9+9=25+2 ($25 for the bill and $2 for the waiter)

:notworthy

Correct, and very well explained (you big spoil sport )

I can see I need to try a little bit harder. Are you familiar with the old classic riddle of two doors and two guards?

One door leads to safety, and the other to certain doom, and you don't know which door is which.

Each door has a guard in front of it. One guard ALWAYS lies, and the other ALWAYS tells the truth, but you don't know which guard is in front of which door.

You are allowed to ask ONE of the guards ONE question only .. and it cant be a great big long run on question with lots of 'and' . Note: The guards themselves know which door is safe and which is dangerous.

By asking this one question, you still wont know which guard is the truth teller and which guard lies, but you WILL know which door leads to safety.

So what is the one question you should ask?

Hope that one causes you a little more head-scratching time


Sorry for derailing the Op Illusion thread with a couple of riddles... so I included one to keep it on track too. Which did you see first in the image... a rabbit looking to the right... or a duck looking to the left?

And for the record, the most common solution to the above scenario is to ask one of the guards, "If I asked you if the door you're guarding leads to where I want to go, would you say Yes?" If he says Yes, then you go through his door, while you go through the other door if he says No. This is because his answer to this question doesn't depend on which guard he is. Say he says Yes to the question. If he's telling the truth, then he would say that the door leads to where you're going, and thus, the door will lead to where you're going. If he's lying, then he'll have to lie about whether he'd say Yes to the question (which, in this case, he would not say Yes if asked if the door led to where you're going, and would in fact say No) and, thus, is forced to give the correct answer to where the door goes. Of course, this requires that both guards know where you are going, and that neither of them considers "Your doom" a place

Just ask guard #1 what guard #2 would say the safe door would be... and take the other one!
