      This is an example of your brain's tendency to "fill in the blanks" of known patterns. It's why optical illusions work so well, because your brain fills in missing data with what it expects to see. The only way to really see what's actually happening is to grow up in an environment where rectangles aren't common.

  • @AnAntidisestablishmentarianist

    For me it started with the Ames window. The strange things it did to my brain were incredible. For a while. Eventually it didn't have the same effect it used to. I needed something stronger so I started to look for harder stuff. Long story short, now I need a new optical illusion every 20 minutes just to function. Take my advice and just don't start.

      More than that... by speaking directly at the camera, the children feel like they are being spoken to. Makes it easier to use autocues, if used. I don't think so as their presentation outdoors is just as fluid and concise.
      The segment where Rob has a string going lying on the ground all the way around the earth and wants to know how much more string he needs to lift it two metres right around the earth. Hint: you don't need to know the size of the earth. :-)

    • @dtoadq
      @dtoadq 2 года назад +1

      it would definitely still work. This illusion isn't how we expect windows to be aligned or shaped, it's that the illusion messes with your brain's expectations of perspective projections by imitating an orthogonal projection. Orthogonal projections don't shrink/grow objects from depth/distance. Our eyes, of course, are perspective and depth-perceiving. This illusion inverts our depth perception.
