    It is crazy, the dots are white but you can see black dots everywhere, I can't understand what's going on!

    #LetsGoSwitzerlandThe Man Who Does Not Read Has No Advantage Over the Man Who Cannot Read. The biggest obstacle to progress is a habit of “buying what we want and begging for what we need.”You get the Freedom you fight for and get the Oppression you deserve.

    @doubledragon coincidentally this is my favorite illusion. I have been sharing it with friends and family for many years. It even works on a piece of paper. The reason I share it with people is because it gives us some interesting and valuable information about how our mind works.

    The first time I have ever seen it was today, it's crazy, it reminds me of that Seinfeld episode when they were looking at the 3d art.

    I can't stop looking at this thing, I've become obsessed with it, where are these black dots coming from? This thing is a mystery, it's a total mystery, just like that box of Michael Jackson Little Debbies that was discovered in Peru.

    ...........
    As far as I remember, what is happening involves the short cuts our brains take to help us do things so fast. I this particular example, our brain sees all of the black. And as our eyes move, it assumes that that the black will continue. So it almost sees it in advance. Ad that is where the dots come from. This honestly is probably not a great explanation, because I have not looked it up in many years. But I think you get the point. It is sort of like how your brain can read something like......Duolbe Daorgn and know that it says Double Dragon.
