I don't think I've ever started a topic here in the Lounge, but this is a pretty funky find:

.. An optical illusion that makes many people see different colors depending on how fast a top with a black & white pattern on it spins...

Pizza would be good right about now.. All I have on hand is some baguette. lol
 
.. My girlfriend showed me the article and mentioned seeing green, so when I first looked that's what I saw. Then I thought of blue and saw that. Then I unfocused and the colors started interchanging as I watched it - switching between the colors of the rainbow... Pretty damn neat.
 
No color at all, but staring at it for ~20 seconds makes me very mildly confused.  I don't doubt that some small part of my brain is screaming in agony, "Make it stop!"  It makes me want to flinch.  In all my life, I've never had any sort of seizure or similar issues, but looking at that damn thing gives me a hint of what one might, perhaps, be like.
 
I'm currently on my old laptop. I don't know the exact response time, but it's sorta slow.   I wonder if a faster monitor response time and/or refresh rate will vary the perceived affect.  Will try it tomorrow on a high refresh CRT and see if I wake up on the floor....  :D
 
Well, if this could be harmful for those who are epyleptic better to use spoiler tag: [ spoiler] insert image [ /spoiler]
(just cancel spaces after "["). Or use third icon --> Special BBCode --> Spoiler

You want pizza, here it is:

Innnnterrrrresting!!
 
Didn't see color on a laptop LCD, but am now seeing fairly strong reddish-brown on my 100Hz CRT. 
 
Also, the image isn't nearly as tiresome to look at.
