Just an Illusion 272 by Marie-Claude Ratté https://padlet.com/marieclauderatte/vty0pkghixth2ebg en-us 2023-05-25 14:26:54 UTC 2023-05-26 17:51:01 UTC hello@padlet.com Spinning discs optical illusion https://padlet.com/marieclauderatte/vty0pkghixth2ebg/wish/2606322476 As you can see, this illusion is a still image where there are multiple circles with dots in them. When you look at it closely you can feel like the wheels are moving around and turning in circles even if they aren't since your brain and eyes are tricking you. In fact, this kind of illusion happens because of how our eyes perceive an image by scanning it repeatedly while autofocusing and adjusting it. To make sure it is really a still image, try focusing on one single circle and it should normally stop moving.]]> 2023-05-26 15:32:05 UTC https://padlet.com/marieclauderatte/vty0pkghixth2ebg/wish/2606322476 https://padlet.com/marieclauderatte/vty0pkghixth2ebg/wish/2606325759 1.  it consists in making your brain believe that the image is rotating.

2. people see the sides and center moving but nothing is happening. its a completly still image. 

3. they're caused by the over stimulation of the brain’s senses as a result fo the eye seeing too much colour, light, movement or dimensions to be able to process. ]]> 2023-05-26 15:35:59 UTC https://padlet.com/marieclauderatte/vty0pkghixth2ebg/wish/2606325759 The changings colors https://padlet.com/marieclauderatte/vty0pkghixth2ebg/wish/2606327222 There are two stripes where there's a «rainbow» that's moving to the left. However, when others colors are aroud theses two stripes, it changes the perspective and the way we see the colors. We see, that when the stripes are around others colors, the «rainbow» become a stripe with only two colors but they are still a rainbow ! This prove that an object can look completly different depending on its surrendings.]]> 2023-05-26 15:37:52 UTC https://padlet.com/marieclauderatte/vty0pkghixth2ebg/wish/2606327222 cubic confusion 2021 https://padlet.com/marieclauderatte/vty0pkghixth2ebg/wish/2606328382 It is a 2 dimensional wood work on a solid background it is arranged to make it look 3d. The larger hexagons makes the 3d effect magnified and balances the whole design. The gaps also make it look 3d]]> 2023-05-26 15:39:29 UTC https://padlet.com/marieclauderatte/vty0pkghixth2ebg/wish/2606328382 Impossible motion: magnet-like slopes chabotc91 https://padlet.com/marieclauderatte/vty0pkghixth2ebg/wish/2606329581 The wooden balls roll up the slopes like they’re pulled by a magnet. The way the balls behave seems impossible,because it is against gravity. But everything is normal, what’s creating the illusion is the angle of the structure which makes the balls roll down because of the angle. So in the beginning of the video it looks against gravity, but it’s actually the way the camera is angled.

- 3D shapes that one side appears like cylinders and on the other side (mirror), they appear like rectangles. When we turn them around, the shapes are changing. The rectangle side is always rectangle and it's the same for the cylinder side.

2. What people see vs what is really happening?
- In the real life side, we see one of the two shapes (cylinders or rectangles) while in the reflection of the mirrior, we see the opposite shape.

3. How can Science explain it?
- Even if its difficult to imagine, its something in the formation of the shapes that lets us think that the mirroir is falsify.

The people see the shape turning horizontally or vertically but in real life it's turning in the both axis at the same time. 

The science explains on what cue you look so it can change the way you think it's turning.]]> 2023-05-26 15:42:16 UTC https://padlet.com/marieclauderatte/vty0pkghixth2ebg/wish/2606330503 THE CHANGING ROOM https://padlet.com/marieclauderatte/vty0pkghixth2ebg/wish/2606332542 1.It's showing a slowly moving room.The room is being altered by adding,removing or moving something in the room to try and make the brain spot it.The props used in the make of this illusion are a room with different things to move and replace. 

2.The people that are watching see a normal room but in reality the room is slowly changing. For example, there are some objects that slowly appear or slowly disappear. It’s a phenomenon in which observers are unable to notice changes to the world around them when those changes occur gradually.
3.the phenomenon is called graduate change blindlness
this phenomenon makes the viewers unable to notice that the room is slowly and gradually changing.THis illusion proves that most viewers realise that something changed,but they don’t remember what or when.

What are the props, the setting/conditions? The Triply ambiguous object consite to show a form with a flag on different point of view with mirrors that create an illusion with the different viewpoints

2)What do people see vs what is really happening? At the beginning, we just see a form. Then, at some point, a man place a another piece. It look similar to the other but, it's not. After a few second, the man put a third one. At the end, we realized that is one piece with 2 mirrors.

3How can Science explain it? Use technical and/or scientific language that you’ll clarify for your peers.   The object give three different interpretation when it is seen from three viewpoints.]]> 2023-05-26 15:47:32 UTC https://padlet.com/marieclauderatte/vty0pkghixth2ebg/wish/2606334658 Phantom Queen https://padlet.com/marieclauderatte/vty0pkghixth2ebg/wish/2606335644 1)It's showing a flat surface with black and red tiles with chest pawn. There are a mirror at the center wich show 2 perscpective, one with a lot of pawn and a queen, and the others one with the same pawn but without the queen.

2)We see in the mirror a queen but in reality we don't see it. Real fact, there is a queen and we should see it in the 2 perspective.

3) there is an anamorphic camouflage that looks like a flat surface and a camouflage wall hides the queen.

It gives the impresion that the fingers are like an object and the reflexion of the other hand look like the second hand.

we see long fingers and two hands but its the reflexion so there's only two hands but we see it in duble.]]> 2023-05-26 15:49:13 UTC https://padlet.com/marieclauderatte/vty0pkghixth2ebg/wish/2606335919 https://padlet.com/marieclauderatte/vty0pkghixth2ebg/wish/2606425144 1. It's an image that people see differently. In fact, some people see it green and gray and other people see it pink and white. 

2. People see different colors with the lightning the image is in. The real color is pink and white but some people see it green and gray. 

3. Science can explain it with the lightning and the part of the brain that is seeing it. Also, it depends on what colors the person was watching before.]]> 2023-05-26 17:51:01 UTC https://padlet.com/marieclauderatte/vty0pkghixth2ebg/wish/2606425144
