Vincent and other visual tricks.... - The UnDoug - 08-27-2014

I shared that Starry Night animated gif thing with my family, and my mom sent me one of the images seen at the link below. Stare at the red dot in the image for 15 - 30 seconds, and then stare at a blank wall and blink your eyes rapidly. It's pretty freaking amazing to me!

Just for information- the color of the dot doesn't matter; if there is a green dot, stare at it instead.
Keeping the eye(s) centered on a spot is what is important.

Also, for thirty seconds- don't blink. At all. Or think of elephants.
(That last advise is utter nonsense. Of course it is.)

If I stare at the macresource forum for 30 seconds, look at a blank wall and blink a bunch, will I see the old dealmac forum?

Oh no! It's elmo3!!!
