Your gonna need a pukebag for the cat in the avatar from staring at the train in your sig. Hell i almost needed a pukebag from the 2 of them combined. :D

...which way is the train going? ;)

I've stared at this for far too long, but I think its oscillating back and forth.

I was mesmerized by the head-explosion deer. That shit changed my life.

I want to gif capture it and calculate the phase shift. My assumption is its either 180° or 180±A° where the effect only works if A°<B° where at B° the train would appear to be blatantly going a specific direction.



edit: or its possible that various frames are varying phase shifts which creates the bidirectional effect. Such as:

Frame 1: 0° Reference
Frame 2: +10°
Frame 3: -10°
Frame 4: etc

and your mind just chooses one. Donno, fun to think about.

Would be so easy to figure out but I can't be bothered :)

Easier to speculate.

its just oscillating. If you focus enough you can see it go back and forth. just dont let your brain get in the way :)

[nilbog]

Changes direction every 9-10 seconds.

[Spitty]

Changes direction every 9-10 seconds.

Only if you want it to...
