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!

Why Volkswagen beetles? 8\
Cool! They really look like they’re moving.
disappointed….I dont know why but no motion in any of these illusions for me……I love this site though,I sometimes spend hours browsing through the illusions.
its slightly movin, its cool
haha thats awesome…i dont haf a favorite…but i guess the first one if i had to choose…
cool site…keep it up!
the first one. the dots get smaller as they come to whole in the center, going at a slant, and thus look like they’re moving. pretty neat.
my brain hurts…
It’s funny. The only way I see them moving, is if I focus my sight slightly above the image. If I look directly at them I don’t see any motion.
