Anything Surreal and Abstract

0 readers
1 users here now

A place for surrealist and abstract content. Art, Memes, Data-moshing, optical illusions, liminal spaces, weirdly comfy stuff and anything else you think at least loosely fits this description goes.

Rules

โœ๏ธ If you know the artist, please credit them (memes are fine without it, as it can be difficult to find OOP)

๐Ÿ”ž Tag NSFW (no porn, please. Non-sexual nudity is fine)

๐Ÿซ‚ Be respectful of others

๐Ÿ—ฃ๏ธ Self promotion is not only allowed, but encouraged. I would love to see your original content

๐Ÿ—ณ๏ธ No politics (light-hearted jokes are fine)

๐Ÿ‘ When in doubt, just post. Unless you are deliberately trying, I most likely won't remove your post

This isn't an optical illusion, it's literally a random pattern video that just looks choppy when you blink fast.

I wouldn't say random, it looks like a complex moirรฉ pattern or some kind of cellular automaton to me.

The circles do seem to stand out more when blinking. But that's probably just because they appear/dissolve too fast otherwise.

Corrected. Thanks.
