Winston Churchill once said, “We Shape Our Buildings and Afterwards, Our Buildings Shape Us.” What did you see? Robert Laws, a Scottish missionary working in Malawi, Africa, showed this image to the Africans and Europeans and the answers varies according to their respective cultural background.

East Africans that took part in the experiment said the lady was balancing a box on her head and the family is sitting under a tree, on the other hand, Europeans which as used to corners and rectangular architecture visualize the family in an indoor space with the box as a window opening.

I am a big fan of optical illusions, I find it curious that how our mind trick us into believing something which is the other way around. Try reading out the ink color of each word. Tough?

Dices Optical Illusion

To draw an optical illusion is easy but to construct an optical illusion is pretty hard, not impossible. Shigeo Fukuda did some pretty good optical illusion with real objects. I have no idea how in the world this guy did that dice illusion, possible using back the same principle like Shigeo Fukuda did, mirror.

When you project a light behind this pile, it casts a shadow that resembles real Motorbike, this shadow sculpture of a motorcycle is built entirely out of welded forks, knives, and spoons, this cool motorbike shadow, done by Master of Deception, Shigeo Fukuda.

Optical Illusion by Shigeo Fukuda

Here is yet another work of Shigeo Fukuda, he tend to explore the wonder of optical illusion in real objects, the image above is a very good example of non-moving optical illusion. If you look into the mirror you will see the reflection of the piano. On the right, you will see a strange construction made out of piano parts, which cast the reflection of a perfect piano when seen from one special viewpoint. - mirage

Color Optical Illusion

colour color optical illusion

An optical illusion on colors, take note of the colour of background A and background B, the Grey color of both A and B appears to be different. One slightly darker than the other, or so it seems to be. Is it really different in term of tone?

The truth is, both A and B are of same color, take a look at the Grey strip that run across both the checker board boxes. Our mind is playing tricks with us.
