Optical Illusion of The Day: Anamorphic Painting |
Posted: 20 Nov 2013 08:52 AM PST Hopefully at one point or another, you’ve been blessed to have witnessed a beautiful anamorphic painting such as the one below. Maybe, you didn't realize you even came across one and you completely overlooked the sheer beauty. Walking through the streets in Barcelona, I stumbled upon a work of art that made me stop dead in my tracks just to take in how amazing the street art truly was. Unfortunately, I wasn’t allowed to capture a picture. This inspired me to find another piece that was comparable. This incredible piece of anamorphic street art is one that you simply cannot ignore. If I were to have seen this as I was strolling the streets, I would have been worried that I would fall into the water! Children and adults alike have to love the sheer detailing, choice of color and depth of this anamorphic painting. Since the area is roped off, it helps to add to the illusion and make you stop and think about it even more. The choice of color and texture that was used in this piece is something that required a lot of time and dedication. For me, I am barely capable of drawing a simple house or tree, let alone anything of this caliber. Until you have seen something like this in person, you aren't able to truly appreciate how much work it took to create this anamorphic painting. If you had the time, would you be able to create something as intricate and detailed as this piece right here? Would you have been able to think about creating a design such as this and know how to go about it? Anyone who has this much talent is simply astonishing in my mind. The next time you see something like this art, take the time to sit back and take it all in to see how the illusion was created in the first place.

Posted: 20 Nov 2013 07:49 AM PST Let me start off by saying that if you are prone to motion sickness, this might not be the best video for you. With just 15 beads attached by string to a beam above, this incredible trick is just out of control! I can’t believe this is actually possible. These pendulum waves create intricate designs one after another. All I could do is wonder what was coming next. Take a good look at this work of art and lets see who can figure out how its all possible. I mean it starts off going in a wavelike motion, but then it takes an entirely new direction and starts spiraling around with the numerous beads going in all different directions. The beads start swaying from side to side before forming into two lines and create a wonderful back and forth design. Just when you think you have it figured out, the beads end up separating into individual units and sway in an entirely different motion! Next thing you know, the beads are swaying in a few groups before they join together and start the motion all over again. How is it that these pendulum waves are able to do all of these different motions with just a single swipe of the beads to get them started? I don't know about you, but I have yet to figure out how this whole thing works. It had me the minute the beads started doing all different movements and swaying in a variety of different ways. These pendulum waves perform so many different movements that it's hard to keep up with them all. What are your thoughts on this? Would you consider it as an optical illusion? This video is definitely ideal at keeping the kids and pets entertained and amazed. The post VIDEO: Pendulum Waves appeared first on Mighty Optical Illusions. |
