A search on Optical Illusions, (something I've always enjoyed) turns up a lot of different sites. There's tons of them at which to play around.
I found some interesting ones at Illusions.org. Especially the one below:
Look at the chart below above and say the COLOR
of the word, not the word itself.
Why is it so difficult? Because the right half of your brain
is trying to say the color, while the left side of your brain
is trying to say the word.
is trying to say the color, while the left side of your brain
is trying to say the word.
I started out "okay" because I knew what I was supposed to do. But I stumbled on the third row on the Blue colored word Yellow. And I had to concentrate on the rest and definitely felt that "left side/right side" conflict of the involuntary reflex of wanting to say the word, not the color.
And THIS ONE explains why I am not a good proofreader of my own material.
And THIS ONE is fantastic.
Put the world on "hold" for a few moments, and have some fun with optical illusions.
