One of my favorite collections is 10 optical illusions in 2 minutes, which was part of a promotional spot by Samsung.

My #1 problem has always been the Ambiguity Problem. Thank you for giving me a new and superb example.

Very cool. Has anyone worked this into a computer game yet? Could be very annoying in a fps.

In the example given here it is even worse because you can always look at the base to see how it is actually rotating. The Ames’s Window is an excellent example of how difficult getting decent 3-D data from 2-D info is.
