blindness
permalink
this is the Bonneh Illusion, where, if you stare
at it long enough, the yellow dots disappear sporadically. it demonstrates Motion-induced-blindness, discovered by Yoram
Bonneh, in which static objects may seem to disappear amongst a larger
moving pattern. the dots are always there but when your attention is focused
away from them, you don't perceive them. this phenomenon is being used to study
consciousness.
