You guys really are thick. This isn’t an illusion for a 2d screen. Its a projection of a 4 dimensional object rotating in 3D space.

What you are looking at is a computer render of an object with four spatial dimensions instead of 3. Its rotating on an axis our brains are not able to comprehend.

Our brains cant comprehend 4 spatial dimensions but a computer can. This is essentially a 2d representation of a 3d representation of a 4d object. Its not an optical illusion. If you saw this in real life it would be though.

THE FOURTH DIMENSION IS TIME a “Tesseract” is a mathematical illusion not a reality it is designed to imply another dimension in order to make theorists or cosmologists sound intelligent .. which they are not.

its an illusion. but not impossible its just a mobius spiral rod with a glass like material,
it is a perfectly obvious 3 dimensional piece
that just spins …..but it is definitely
COOL… :)

Dude, chill haha, “Fools!” some people may get it and others may not. That is percisely the point of an optical illusion. Calm down buddy.

The fourth dimension is time. In essence, it is impossible to calculate. Here are all the dimensions.
Line
Square
Cube
Time
Tessecrat

Haha it’s kinda like a barber shop pole, but 3Dish. I wouldn’t technically call it a illusion, but it’s still really awesome to look at!

That’s not a real illusion. I followed it with my cursor, and it’s no different than unwrapping a badly coiled bike cable.

What you are seeing is one short movement, then it stops, and starts again. You can see it stop momentarily and then start from the beginning again. it ends where it would stop to make it look as if it keeps going into itself. If you look at the bottom, the inside coils spread out and go up. There are two coils going in opposite directions from each other at the same time and coiling around each other, thus causing it to look like one spiral. Just look at it a while, not just i one spot. It’s easier to comprehend after you forget about the “water” beneath it and think of the spiral as water itself, not glass. Don’t think about it as if it could happen in real life right now, that will make it easier to understand also.
