Just as I got in the mood for writing, another sequel of Dirty Harry started. Not so long ago we posted a “remastered version” of a classic optical illusion, including Young Lady and an Old Hag. A reference to the original illusion was mentioned accordingly. Well, today I give you another recently popular video created [...]

You have got to check this animation out! It has potential to overthrow the “Little Dragon Illusion” of the throne as one of the best illusions ever. In short concave figures give the impression they are actually convex (bump out). Same principle we saw in Einstein’s Hollow Face and Magnificent Buddha. You can find few [...]

I have a flew (update: flu). It’s so hard doin’ anything while being sick. I’m like a walking zombie. I’m dizzy, sleep all day, but am not able to fall a sleep. Can’t read, can’t watch TV, everything I see looks like this. My head hurts when I try to talk or listen to someone. [...]
