what do you think about that

I love those optical illusions. I could make it stop moving when i stared at the screen a certain way.

edit: now i'm feeling nauseous.

Heh, it's like sneaking infront of you:

Look at the vertical line on left where 2 blue disks share one white edge. Your mind tells that there is no moving, since you can clearly see these two disks. No moving.

Now even a slight eye movement from these joined disks makes image move again. Like it's waiting for you to be distracted...

Anyway these illusion things make me dizzy. I accidentally created one of my own when messing around with rendering in 3ds max. Unfortunately the file's gone... Maybe it was even an original illusion!

I have a similar image as a poster, it's a popular design.

It was mentioned on the IRC channel the other day how our old friend HellBeast's space background has a similar effect.

Does this also work when printed on paper ?
It will be cool to paint your room like this then 

[Buckethead]

that second one i scary  :o  I think it would a so 70s if you make a wallpaper of it lol. And if you do you will probably go crazy

What about putting it on your floor and ceiling too. The corners of the room will disappear

You might aswell be locked in a room with matresses on the wall wearing a shirt without sleeves.

Sounds like fun! At least when you're there you wouldn't need to worry about the dirt under the fingernails

[Buckethead]

sounds lonely though, no one to play with. And you can't even play with yourself.

You don't get turned on by the michelin man!

The first one isn't going anywhere, and I don't see anything else in the second, that that it makes me somewhat dizzy if looked at for a longer time. If that's what it's supposed to do, then good I guess. Most illusions work for me, but not all.

[Ghost]

Ouch- that actually *hurts*. But a nice illusion all the same!
