RE: Can you see all twelve dots in this image? Nope.... you cannot.

in #optical8 years ago

I tried that same pattern, but the most I could see was 4 at a time. So now I wonder, is your brain remembering what it saw and assuming it's still there, or is there enough information that your brain is now better able to interpret what it's seeing in your peripheral vision...

Sort:  

I am not sure, but it is not funny anymore because I see the 12 points every time. Maybe my brain just recorded the pattern and remember it. I can not switch back again.
Also is truth that I work with crystal simetry pattern daily, so, maybe my brain is trained to see patterns and keep it. Also, in this occasion, I knew what was looking for...
This make me think how different we perceive the universe around us... Even when everybody is seeing the same thing...
