A true gold-mine of illusions.
The "Kochi-jo castle and Kinkaku" illusison ( http://www.psy.ritsumei.ac.jp/~akitaoka/tagi3e.html http://www.psy.ritsumei.ac.jp/~akitaoka/tagi3e.html ) is quite fascinating. Close-by observers see one castle and far-away observers see an other castle.
I wonder if you could use this technique in marketing. Where you would have a sign that showed different things, depending on how far away you are standing.
- moe 16y agoClose-by observers see one castle and far-away observers see an other castle. There's also an old version with faces, which I found even more impressive: http://farm1.static.flickr.com/171/435058989_9d83960682_o.jpg http://farm1.static.flickr.com/171/435058989_9d83960682_o.jp... Take a few steps back and the faces swap! I have seen optical effects used on billboards but not this exact one, yet. Perhaps it's hard to achieve a good effect at billboard size.
