As we concluded last Monday, occasionally “repeating” somewhat similar illusions shouldn’t be a problem (at least this is what the majority has decided). In practice, the only similarity between today’s animated gif and previous submissions of this type lyes in the way they work. I remember like it was yesterday when John Shadowski first introduced [...]

Yesterday we talked about 7th annual Best Illusion of The Year contest. We covered the winner and one of the finalists, and I think it wouldn’t be fair if we moved on without mentioning one particular interactive animation. More specifically – the illusion that won the second prize. Created by Erica Dixon, Arthur Shapiro and [...]

Each year in May, Vision Sciences Society holds its Best Illusion of The Year contest and this year’s absolute winner was an illusion by Jordan Suchow and George Alvarez from Harvard. Originally called “Silencing awareness of change by background motion” (or shorter “Silencing Illusion”) is something we already talked about few months ago, so in [...]

You have to realize though, it’s hard to keep everyone happy at the same time. While [...]

As always, Francis Tabary keeps on amazing us with his creative works of art. This time he came up with such a clever ambigram, one that works in a way I never thought would be possible! What Francis managed to pull off, he designed an object of such formation that when mirrored horizontally forms a [...]

What I love most about professor Kitaoka’s homegrown illusions, is their simplicity. Just look at the color-adapting sample he came up with all the way back in 2005. Even though the central square appears to be greenish, in reality it’s monochromatic. Meaning, the central square actually lacks color and its pattern is composed in gray-scale. [...]

Apologizes for skipping Tuesday (illusion wise)! Something technical came up, which asked for immediate attention. No need to go into much detail, but it was an issue I believe had something to do with our bandwidth. Anyway, let me share these two posters to make up for it. When I first saw them, I remember [...]
