Ambiguous Cylinders Illusion Will Tax Your Brain
Professor Kokichi Sugihara’s ‘Ambiguous Cylinders’ illusion is baffling viewers and has won him the second prize in the 2016 Illusion of the Year contest. This optical trickery exploits the shortcomings of the mind that relies on the brain and its rigid perspective. The Verge reports: Oh man. Oh jeez. This is, apparently, the ‘ambiguous cylinders’ illusion, the creation of Kokichi Sugihar, a professor of engineering at Meiji University in Japan.
