Illusion Museum

Illusion Museum is a facility of Meiji University studying computational illusion.
It's not a commercial museum, but it's open to public only on Saturdays.

There's a message at the entrance.

"Resistance is futile.
  We have computed your vision.

 Can you really believe your eyes?
 Let illusion invite you to have another think.

 Welcome to the world of computational illusion."

You can experience these illusions and enjoy their strangeness.

Let me show you some exhibitions.
(I'll show you the secret of some illusions tomorrow.)

 Impossible motion.

 These balls seem to ignore gravity.

Two balls are same in size.

One of impossible solids.

This reminds me of Escher's "Ascending and Descending".

 One of impossible solids.

Homeostasis in eye color.

Her right eye of each picture has the same color.

Letter row tilt illusion.
