Not really an illusion, though – it’s just a way of delivering animation frames isn’t it?

Ah, point taken , IVAN3MAN. Yes it is intriguing and clever. Is it really an old painting/photo/vase or whatever? Thanks for pointing it out.

Actually it reminds me of a time when at school nearly 60 years ago, when I came to my fellow class-mates, and I think some slightly older fellow students, and they had been looking at a drawing, (pencil, as I remember), of an Indian Chief. I only had a brief glance at it before it was rolled-up, but I thought (imagined?) that it was somewhat more than bawdy.

To this day though, I have no idea what it really was, that was “hidden”. If anything. But I can’t imagine what they would have been so interested in, being normal kids, growing-up.

Maybe it is a case of xxxxxdoilia.

Ivan.

In what way is this an “illusion”, and not just a clever hack?
Unless you consider something like a flip-book animation to be
an illusion of motion, this seems like just a cute way to deliver
a sequence of images that behave exactly as you would expect.

Or is it a case of “Dolphindoilia”?

What Dolphins? Or am I looking at a different picture?

Is it because I’m Down Under, and all the dolphins are out of the water?

Just thought I’d ask.
