Pixspective Online!

7 11 2008

Just launched my new photo blog over the net called Pixspective Photo Blog basically, its my second photo blog the first was Perspective Photo Blog but somehow I forgot the password for it after a month of no updates since I was a bit busy in making and looking up articles related to magic, mentalism and rare stuff. The Pixspective Blog is mainly about simple pictures that are being intepreted to bring about meanings. As the saying goes “Every Picture Tells A Story”. Seeing is different from Looking into … Sometimes we fail to value the simple things Life has to offer because we tend to forget that the things that are essential are invisible to the eyes yet they can only be appreciated with the heart.

Eye Fooled! The Wonder of Optical Illusions

1 11 2008

What you see is sometimes not what you get.

An illusion is a disruption of our senses, revealing how the brain normally organizes and processes sensory stimulation.  Illusions may occur with more of the human senses than vision, but visual illusions, optical illusions, are the most well known and understood. The emphasis on visual illusions occurs because vision often dominates the other senses.

There are times when our eyes can fool us. We perceive something that is totally not real. Why???

An optical illusion sometimes referred to as visual illusion is composed of visually perceived images that deviate from objective reality. The stimulus received by the eye is then interpreted and the brain to give a percept that does not coordinate with a physical measurement of the stimulus source. There are three main types of illusion – literal optical illusions that create images that are different from the objects that make them, physiological illusions that are the effects on the eyes and brain of excessive stimulation of a specific type – brightness, tilt, color, movement, and cognitive illusions where the eye and brain make Read the rest of this entry »
