Optical Illusions

[iankobe]

I once was looking at optical illusions online, and was looking at the classic spinning things when suddenly a friggin rat from hell popped up on the screen.

Put me off optical illusions for a while lol.

What do you see?

At first I only see the box in two walls. As I tried harder...I SEE another side of it!

For the witch and the lady one...its common.

My math teacher showed me this one challenge. On the page there were words : red, blue, green, etc. There were about twenty words total. Except that the words were colored differently than the color they spelled, e.g., the word "yellow" was green. The trick was to read through the lines saying the color of the word, and not the word itself. Very difficult.

That hurts D:

It feels like it's having a "wave-effect" but after staring even more it begins to hurt my eyes.

How is this thread not on the first page >=[

 

[MojoMan]

gee, maybe because it died and you just bumped it needlessly. The last comment was like 3 weeks ago.

 

[nightelf56]

[streetracr77]

Did anyone explain the dice picture on the first page? I know how it's done.

I want an explanation plzzzzz.

 

[choknater]

Okay.

The dice on the left an the top right die are all on the ground.

The dice on the right are in a stack, and the 4th die from the bottom was cut at very precise angles so that it would look like the two background dice on the top are actually overlapping it.

This has been pestering me for a while.

If you look the second picture has #3 next to #4 not on it since #4 has two blocks on its tail, and #3 has four, on extra space is shown.

No, no, that's wrong.
There's an actual mathematical explanation for it:

Here's a illusion that is on my maths (yes I said maths not math, I'm british get over it) class wall:

This is one of many very famous lithgraphs by M.C. Escher, called "Ascending and Descending." I have it on the wall of my cubicle as well as on the wall of my office at home. Escher is my very favourite artist of the post-renaissance. A more well-known and fun optical illusion lithograph by him is "Relativity."
