More Fun With Psychology


Look at this picture.
Does it move?






Perception and the mind's eye are at work here again. This is a stationary picture. It is NOT moving, but when we look at it, it MOVES.


Try this one. It's called "Slow Gears" - based on the work by A. Kitaoka.






Afterimages from our peripheral vision create "perceived movement" . Our mind then tells us that the image IS moving.


Okay, fun time is over.
