Some classic optical illusions, MTV style.

Chris over at Mixing Memory (a very cool blog, by the way) posted this youtube video featuring some of my favourite optical illusions all wrapped up in one very funky video package.

I'd love to see something like this shown at cinemas before a movie.

Oh, and turn up your speakers for the very chic soundtrack.

Actually i found his blog on 'Animal Rights and Animal Research' really fascinating. I love how he and all the people who commented skirted around the issues of mass suffering and defining an animal as a product rather than a living being. Millions of animals are dying each day to fill the stomachs of a few countries. Animal testing is positively angelic compared to these numbers. My reasoning is that humans have a need to grow, to ascend the sum of their parts. Most of us abhor suffering of any kind and yet we actively relish its outcome at the same time. It just highlights to me how we humans can so easily filter our morality to suit our needs. Responsibility is left to others.

Fascinating. Though I would argue that the Moebius Strip exists in 3d.

Lee, of course, yes the Moebius Strip exists in 3d...good point.
