Dark (Pink) Energy

Warning! What you are about to see — should you brave the jump — is extremely disturbing. (Robert especially should approach with caution.) We will not be responsible for any mental damage incurred.

Technical note: you will need a decent screen size to make it work. Handheld devices are not big enough. Click on the images for larger versions. Also, you may need to watch it closely for a moment or two to get the full effect (at your peril). Let your eyes move around.

    The first one rolls more than the second, which pulses more than the first. (At least, for me, that’s the way it is.)

    Hmm, at first glance, the bunnies seem to be spinning and going down. At second glance, they’re still spinning down, but they’re going in a wave pattern.

    By the way, I don’t have any depigmentizer darts on me, could someone cure BEETLES – HPB ? Also, I don’t seem to be turning into a bunny, could I be resisting the picture? I’m not easily influenced, and that pink napkin next to me is as repulsive to me as ever. Well, actually, it’s not too horrible… not horrible at all…actually, it’s kind of nice… pretty… very pretty… must fold into bunny shape… bunnies are soo cute… BUNNIES

    • Guilty. (The bunnies made me do it.) The basic layout came from a Photoshop tutorial on creating optical illusions, using a simple oval. I adapted the idea for Illustrator because the vector format made this easier to make changes. Each bunny is a special graphic Illustrator calls a symbol. All I have to do now is swap out the symbol and everything else updates automatically.

      By the way, the illusion works in a completely different way from the stereoscopic pictures. The effect depends on the how the eye travels along the high contrast outlines around each bunny. That’s why the enlargements work better; they give the eyes room to move around.

    I guess I’ve been fighting HPBs for too long (4 years now – wow!) because I’m not going nuts. Yes, I can see the rolling and spinning and such, but I don’t find it particularly mesmerizing. In fact, I’m probably still wearing my BunnyProof Suit!

    Tip (or not): if you move your eyes horizontally from one side of the picture to the other, the first one (at least for me) gave of a more hypnotic effect.
    I copied and pasted the two images into PowerPoint, made them fill each slide, and then zoomed in to 100%. Really great effect.
