This image you see today is created by Rupert Sheldrake, and was part of a TV experiment in 1983 with 2 million BBC viewers. Sheldrake wanted to test his theory of morphogenetic fields, and from this theory, the knowledge of other people can influence your own. In other words, if many people know what this picture is, you would also recognize it easier. The best part is that the results were surprising… I found this image on planet perplex, and believe it or not, had some hard time figuring out what it represents. How long did it take you to see the hidden meaning? Let’s make test of our own ;)

    well most ppl r saying either a man and a woman dancing, or a panda. i actually saw sort of some kind of cat at first, maybe an angry cat? but looking at it again, it sort of looks like a panda. and then from another perspective, a man and a woman dancing.

    It’s not dancers, although they are there. Too much of the visual field would be wasted, to justify only to slender central figures. Likewise with pandas — a bit obvious, given the two-tone theme.

    It’s Mount Rushmore.

    It is a PANDA

    I see Dancers who are broken.. So Break dancing would be my guess. I am surprised no one has also seen this.
