Thats a really good one, though I am not sure the boat is real... might just appear to be there through suggestion.

the squares definitely aren't the same color, but the letters might be.

this one is crazy. depending on what side of the brain you use the most, you will either see her spinning clockwise or counterclockwise, or after a while both ways.

when i look at it early in the morning when i start work she is usually going clockwise, then when i wake up she starts going the other way. it is a trip how we perceive things

edit: i did take this gif apart frame by frame to make sure there was no trickery going on. there is not.

i believe what the makers said is by using the left side of your brain more makes her go clockwise. and using the more creative side makes her go counterclockwise.

actually, you are wrong.

i sampled each square in photoshop and posted them into a new document. see below

the squares are the same color. the text appears to be different colors. part of the illusion. make the B darker to make the square it sits on appear to be lighter. trippy illusion.

crazy.
I kept watching it...and watching it...cloclwise and clockwise. Couldn't see HOW in the HELL it could move counter clockwise
...until I looked away for a second and looked back and she spinning the other direction.
Weird

Yeah, they are the same color for sure. put your index finger between the two squares. You'll see it.
