Optical Delusion

By way of Manhattan User's Guide, this might just be the coolest thing I've ever seen in my life. And freaky. Just goes to show you that the things we count on to prove our reality -- sight, sound, smells -- aren't always necessarily what we think.

This, of course, comes right on the heels of my latest read, Alan Watts' collected early writings, Become What You Are. It sounds like a self-help book, but it's actually a collection of his early writings about Eastern thought, much of it on the nature of Reality.

Intriguing, interesting stuff.
