Just found this animation in my mailbox which was submitted by one of our fans – Brad Snyder. I’m not exactly sure how it functions, but the illusion should be similar with our famous Spinning Girl illusion. Apparently the gem we see below is rotating in only one direction. Because it is shallow, it gives [...]

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, [...]

Joseph Mohmed stumbled upon this awesome continuous animation. It works by the Droste Effect principals, and the illusion is almost identical to Escher’s window and Zoomquilt illusion. I was starring at this gif for almost five minutes, and couldn’t spot the photoshopped part. I know this was done by a computer, I just can’t seem [...]

Cheesy Poofs sent these two optical illusions (the second one can be found inside this article). The motive we see is quite popular (orange, yellow blocks etc.), and we’ve seen it number of times in similar articles. This time you need to open the images full size, and follow Cheesy Poof’s instructions: “For both illusions, [...]

Hey everyone! While you are reading this, I’m probably on my student journey to Santorini and Kreta in Greece. This is some kind of excursion students in my country take at the end of their college. I’m still 2 years from finishing it, but can’t hurt to travel, right? This post was written before my [...]

Man! This is some sick optical illusion I have to admit. I can’t stand to look at this image for more than 5 seconds. It makes me dizzy as hell! I don’t understand it, but it makes me nervous, angry and gives me will to break something. Help me… Hehe. Check our previous similar illusions: [...]
