Some crazy optical illusions...

Recommended Posts

Check out these images, they made me feel sick after a while.

Open them in full screen for the best effect and keep your eyes moving.

Can anyone explain why this sort of visual trick happens, or how it happens?

i think a few sites with these images may also have information regarding the reasons why they happen.

mu, I believe the term is lateral inhibition where dark/light receptor rods in the eye "compete" for firing off neurons to the brain, so there is a sort of overlap.

So mostly neurons arrive in the right order but every couple of neurons might be a "perceive dark" instruction to the brain when it should have been "perceive light" instruction...
