# Step Inside the Hypnosis & Motion Illusions Lab

Ready to see your own eyes lie to you in real time?

Welcome to the **Hypnosis & Motion Illusions Lab** — an interactive browser experience packed with **30 mind-bending optical illusions, kinetic animations, and classic stage-hypnotism visuals**.

From converging logarithmic spirals, swinging pocket watches, and Duchamp’s *Rotorelief* 3D cones to legendary perceptual tricks like the *Lilac Chaser*, *Rotating Snakes*, *Pinna-Brelstaff Rings*, and the *Scintillating Grid*, every pattern is rendered live at full screen to push your visual cortex to the limit. Stare for 30 seconds, hit **STOP**, and let the built-in **After-Effect Tester** make a completely motionless screen swirl, breathe, and warp right before your eyes.

## ⚠️ Warning: Side Effects May Include Wonky Vision

!!! Side Effects of Optical Illusions !!!

These illusions aren’t just eye candy — they actively fatigue direction-selective neurons and hijack your retinal contrast sensors. Spending a little too long in the lab may temporarily result in:
– Stationary walls, keyboards, and faces appearing to melt, spiral, or drift in reverse
– Phantom colors flashing across pure black-and-white patterns
– Bright dots vanishing into thin air while you stare right at them
– Feeling like you’re trapped in a room of curved funhouse mirrors with your pupils pointing in two different directions

*Note: Many patterns feature high-contrast repetitive geometry and rapid motion. If you are sensitive to flashing or rotating visuals (or have photosensitive epilepsy), please skip the high-contrast spinners. 30–60 seconds per illusion is all it takes to experience the full effect!*
