Select Your Shape and Perspective Illusions Quiz Now

Because we live in a three-dimensional world, certain rules apply to the objects we encounter every day. Our brains assume these rules apply uniformly to every single thing we see.

As your mind struggles to process the images, it leaps to all sorts of erroneous conclusions because it simply can’t accept that not everything works according to its standard rules. The extent to which we can be flummoxed by such things is curious, as it’s often quite difficult to adapt our viewpoint even after we’ve got a detailed understanding of what we’re seeing. Prepare to be perplexed by our shape and perspective illusions!
