Here’s one of classic examples how our brain can easily be deceived. When you first look at the image below, red stripes seem to move in one direction only. Try focusing on the central dot… See how the stripes started moving in the opposite direction? You can repeat this process as many times you want, it works all the time! Enjoy!

TRIPPY!
How can I get a clock like this or just a wall piece. Does this come in a wallpaper? I love this one…
it changes depending on which side of the picture you look at
I do this kind of stuff with ceiling fans all the time. I was doing it before I found this site.
I dunno. Which ever way you want!
P.S. 5th?
Um. This is kind of a fake. If you stare at JUST one single red stripe for 6 seconds… you’ll notice that they all change direction after about 2 sections. So this isn’t an illusion in my book. Just a circle of rotating stripes that change direction and try to fool people into thinking they’re only going one way but “appear” to go different ways or something.
even if you don’t stare at the dot the red stripes are still moving!!!
