The Devils Triangle illusion
What is wrong with this triangle? Could you use wood and nails to build something in three dimensions that looks just like this?
In fact you can, although it might take you a while to figure out what shape you would need to construct. Why is it so hard to figure out?
Because your wooden construction would look like this image from only one very special viewpoint. Your Visual Intelligence normally rejects interpretations of images which would entail that the eye is viewing the image from a very special viewpoint.
So your visual intelligence refuses to tell you what the construction should be.
Instead you must rely on your rational intelligence to figure it out, and your rational intelligence is, in these matters, much slower than your Visual Intelligence.

Inward moving square Illusion
David Cherry (whose Unreal Movement Triangles we already covered) created something we haven’t had the opportunity to see for quite some time now. His “animation” effect works flawlessly! In order for you to see the effect in its full glory, I was forced to edit David’s original attachment, yet it’s still available if you click on the picture and open it full size. Am I imagining things, or does the phantom cross really appear to continuously shrink?

New Optical Illusion : Bourdon illusion
The upper side of the left-lower triangle is actually aligned with the upper side of the right-upper triangle, the former appears to tilt counter clockwise while the latter clockwise.

Impossible Wooden Triangle Illusion - Impossible Triangle Illusion
This is a simple photo of impossible triangles formation. This impossible construction sure looks Escher inspired.
You presume it’s two triangles trapped in an impossible way, but actually it’s only one continuous line if you follow it closely.
