Motion Induced Blindness

[Les]

I noticed this effect when staring at things as a kid, thought it was kind of neat being able to make things 'disappear'. Is interesting to see the effect so easily reproduced with that motion graphic you linked to. Thanks for the info.

If you stare at it long enough when you come back to this page you can still see the square and the three yellow dots
