Optical Illusion of the Month (April - May 2008)

 
by Gianni A. Sarcone and Marie-Jo Waeber
 

 

"One’s own view of reality as
the only reality is the most
dangerous of all delusions."
– Paul Watzlawick

In this page we will present interactive optical illusion challenges. Each month, we will post new puzzling illusions to solve and/or to comtemplate: ambiguous and completion figures, impossible figures, hidden objects, illusions involving colors, geometric illusions, illusory moving patterns, verbal illusions and paradoxes. All these illusions were adapted/designed by the authors with the aim of allowing the visitor/reader to
• discover how we perceive things,
• test and enhance the power of observation and critical thinking skills,
• improve mental flexibility,
• have fun being deceived by puzzling visual challenges.
