I'm still not convinced. They said the answer is pink. But...it wasn't pink, even to their own admission. A pink shoe, when placed under pure-green lighting is no longer pink: at this point we're out of illusion territory and into lighting trick / semantics territory.
If they'd have said the answer is green-gray, then fine, this would be an illusion for those people who incorrectly thought the shoes are pink, but their answer is still wrong.
- krsrhe 5y agoThe picture is gray, but the actual shoes are pink, but bathed in green light. Some people sometimes can mentally remove the green lighting.
- dsr_ 5y agoTo do this properly, then, they should use video instead of stills. Have a nice white background. White socks, pink shoes. Slowly move a green spotlight across the scene.
- drdec 5y agoThis is what I don't understand. I thought the socks were green, not white in green light, and still thought the shoes were pink.
