^That type of optical illusion is my favourite. I can never get over how realistic the image looks in colour. |

^ I love that one with the spinning girl, it's so trippy. X3 |

Yes but she can look to be spinning clockwise or counter-clockwise (from a birds-eye view). While she seems to be facing away from you, you can cause a shift in your perception so that she's facing toward you. This works for any spinning silouhette. |

You could do the same thing with that smiley if it were made into a silhouette. |

that cat is really neat |

The dancing lady is really a great demonstration that your consciousness is not, as we commonly imagine it to be, just a passive mirror of the real world. In reality, everything we see is loaded with contextual interpretation. Particularly interesting to cognitive science is the fact that you can only perceive one interpretation at once, which seems like it implies a lot about the singularity of attention. The Necker Cube was the first demonstration of this. This is a rotating one. You can make it flip relatively easy by focusing on the four vertices on the left or the four vertices on the right. |

Why have I never seen those ones before? Even though I've seen similar illusions I didn't believe it until testing it. |
