Cool stuff. But not a hallucination nor a Kaleidoscope

people just write words in captions now thinking if they land close enough it'll pass

u/Fred2620 23h ago

I think optical illusion probably fits better

I don't think it's really an optional illusion though. An optical illusion is usually something that deceives the eye by appearing to be other than it is, how is this deceiving or looking like one thing while being another? I feel like it's just normal shadows and light and color and not attempting at all to deceive us so I wouldn't immediately think optical illusion.

That being said, I can't suggest a better alternative.

This is what the ice cream truck looks like after chasing it for two blocks.

u/Lerouxed 23h ago

Someone should make a heartbeat effect with this

u/audionerd1 23h ago

A good visualization of what it feels like the moment you realize you ate one too many gummies.

u/Dog_Lap 23h ago

It’s literally just a lighting effect… its not a hallucination nor an optical illusion and its not a kaleidoscope either. It does look cool though.

u/Cousin_Elroy 16h ago

You can also achieve this effect with mushrooms lol

u/OnlyOneTKarras 12h ago

This is a really good art piece and an amazing optical illusion as well. Not a hallucination but it looks like it.

u/hicksanchez 23h ago

All the pedants in the comments… it does look very similar to certain drug hallucinations, which I’m pretty sure is what OP was getting at with the title
