Optical Illusions Etc...: Fractal laptop

Description Presented here is a vast gallery of many different forms of Optical Illusions. Whether these optical illusions are conveyed through fractals, photographs, architecture, art, or old fashioned pen and ink, they are bound to remind you that "seeing is not believing."

Caution!!!! Some of the optical illusions on this blog may cause dizziness or possibly epileptic seizures. The latter happens when the brain can't handle the conflicting information from your two eyes. If you start feeling unwell when using this website, immediately cover one eye with your hand and then leave the page. Do not close your eyes because that can make the attack worse.

Fractal laptop

Fractals are part of the Etc... in Optical Illusions Etc..., no photoshop used in the creation of the piece below. I love the illusion of infinity that this picture evokes.

The artist explains his piece here:

Traveling from Missouri to Virginia, I stopped for the night at a hotel. I was really bored, so I started experimenting.

This is from the dark ages, by the way.. Sony Mavica floppy disk based camera & a Pentium II 266 laptop.. heh. heh.

So, anyway. I would take a picture of the laptop, swap floppy disks, display the latest photo on the laptop, and take another picture of the laptop, and so on.
