Optical Illusion Moving Patterns
November 15, 2007 by Vurdlak
A friend of mine pointed me to these amazing images done by Flickr artist called KRandolph. He used well known patterns done by master of illusions, Akiyoshi Kitaoka, and warped them to create these beautiful modern optical illusions. It's amazing how well these work. Remember, that all of the pictures below are static in nature, and that they somehow manage to fool the eye, and give you impression of continuous motion. To experience this effect in its full capacity, open the images in full size (more inside this article). Which one did you like most? Which one gives the best effect? Please share your thoughts!

Its pretty cool i think!
not that impressive as it is 3d
Yay I'm first!
I liked the 4th one
tht's reallly amazing
I think that #1 is the best effects one!!
3 was crazy good best
3 was off the wall
whoa that silver 1 was going haywire man!
Very cool...I love the colors!!!!
I liked the fourth one too.
the third did nothing for me.
haha I would love to have that on my living room wall! JJ
I don't normaly comment but these are so cool.
Love this kind of Illusions. Liked the 2nd and 4th most. Want to use them as screen savers!
what... it's 3d?
I liked the last two, the one with the cars I didn't see moving at all though.
its cool. i like the 1st one. if you stare at any of those image long enough, it moves.
I think 4th was best... pretty.
I like the 3rd one.
actually, pheonix, i don't think it's 3D. i think he just painted it so that it looked like it was popping out of the frame. it is really cool in my opinion :D
Very impressive as it is "Not 3d "(Phoenix) but a 2d representation. What is mazing though is the depth of field feeling created by it.
My favorite is the 5th one.
the first and third were pretty amazing, but the others didn't move at all for me.
O.o kool ^^
They didn't work that well for me, they were barely moving at all. The ones moving most were the first and the last
whoa thats freaky! i like the second 1
HEY HEY THATS SWEET!!!
they only move when i look away!
yes i can see them from the corner of my eyes!
i think the very 1st one gives the most best effect because if you look at the center where the aquamarine car is at you feel like the blue dots are moving foward slowly....its pretty cool..i like this type of cool effects of pictures thats why i add this application in facebook..lolz
the girl below it is hot
The fourth one was most pronounced, but the 2nd and fifth weren't far behind.
it dosnt have anything 2 do w/ looking away u just dont look hard at it
Thew are all cool but I like the last on the most. and the third one didn't really move for me.
I like the last one because i lked the bulging effect when you look in the center.
I think the last one was awesome! If you look at one corner, the opposite corner moves! These are so cool!
WONDERFULL, FANTASTIC
yea, I definitely liked the first picture the best. It's cool! =D
It's amazing! I like the second one and the last one.
visual gymnastics....i've had my exercise for the day..
The first one is amazing! Very dizzy-making
I couldn't make myself see the third one as moving at all though.
wow these are cool! like the first one best i like the beetle's :)
I am the one who twisted these well known illusions and I find that a lot of people can't see the image move. I've changed the hues and it changes the movements to less or not at all. Colors and shade make the difference. Everyones eyes are different they may see different things.Being color blind makes a difference.
The illusions are really trippy! They're the best i've seen so far!!!
Look at the first, the "glass" ball is giving a shine at the top as it were round, looks like glass reflection made in Vray, the one in the frame, look at the blue ball, the persons dont reflect in it
i think the last one was totally the best
wiked....p.s when will mighty magic tricks start up again???
wow they were all pretty cool
but not smart to look at when you have a stomach virus.
the forth ones insane!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
for me, the first one seemed to move more than all the others. they are all very pretty. i love this type of optical illusion.
awesome!!! :D
Am I the only one who didn't see any movement in these at all??
These kinds of optical illusions don't work on me for some reason.
I don't see the illusion.They seem to just sit there.
WHOA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
THIS IS AWESOME!!!!!
PUBLISH SOMETHING ELSE LIKE THIS SOON!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
the fourth one is the only one that didn't move at ALL... the others were GREAT!
well 4th was cool, but what did 3rd do??
wow, i think it's really cool and freaky! the car one seems 2 B moving!!!!! thanx!
Why Volkswagen beetles? 8\
Cool! They really look like they're moving.
