> When you get better at juggling, objects really start falling down in slow motion
One tangental optical note effect I only recently noticed is that I shift my eyes quickly to a spinning ceiling fan there is a moment where the fan blade(s) appear to be effectively stationary -- and then transition to the blur that one normally sees.
- yial 1y agoI think what you’re describing is different than the slow motion fall. (Though it may be the same, or similar type of processing….) The fan, I believe is similar to a clock ticking and a type of saccadic masking. (1) Related to the optokinetic response. (2) I’m sure someone with much more knowledge than I could better clarify however.
