Illusions Blog Chapter 6

The Illusions i went to were the waterfall, spiral aftereffect, reverse spoke, wagon wheel, sigma motion, flash-lag effect, Enigma, and motion binding.

I learned a lot from these tutorials because all of these illusions will play some sort or trick on you and I would start to see different things that weren't their. The worst ones were all of the illusions that would spin in a circle and I would fall for what you would see that wasn't actually their.

Nothing surprised me about the tutorials because I have done these before and I would fall for them everytime. It is really intersting that no matter how hard you try someway your brain will play a trick on you.

From what I have experienced nothing has changed my mind on how we sense or perceive because these illusions are ment to screw people up and show how people see different things and how your mind will play tricks on you and this hasn't changed what I perceive because these tricks happen to people everyday, for example a mirage.

These experiences can effect me on a day to day bases because one day I will go to school and I will think i saw someone I know so i will double take and it won't be that person or another example would be wanting to go and pick something off the floor that you may have heard drop and it won't be their because you realized that it actually never dropped. These are both two ways that your mind can play tricks on you.

  1. How can you say nothing surpised about these illusions. Every time you looked at them they could be 3 different things. Or maybe that just me.
