I am an aspiring scientist. I ambition to hit it big one day, and make a great discovery worthy of a noble prize. I want my name in the textbooks. But in the meanwhile, I like to distract myself with other things. Enjoy.

Take a look at this image, You see embedded spirals of green, pinkish-orange, and blue? Incredibly, the green and the blue spiralsare the same color.
The reason they look different colors is because our brain judges the color of an object by comparing it to surrounding colors. In this case, the stripes are not continuous as they appear at first glance. The orange stripes don’t go through the “blue” spiral, and the magenta ones don’t go through the “green” one. Here’s a zoom to make this more clear:
The orange stripes go through the “green” spiral but not the “blue” one. So without us even knowing it, our brains compare that spiral to the orange stripes, forcing it to think the spiral is green. The magenta stripes make the other part of the spiral look blue, even though they are exactly the same color.

this is interesting for 2 reasons. the first is you can see the pattern of popular music over the years, and how its changed from r+b, to pop, and all over the place
the other reason its interesting is, well lets face it, just look at jimmy pesto jr dancing!
