Stare at the white dot on the lady's nose for 15 sec. or so then look over to the white area on the right - there she is in full color

(8,175 posts)I tried a more general focus on her whole face, then shifted and got a hairdo with a blank face in the middle. To see her features, I really did have to focus on that dot. Then I tried focusing on the dot with the page scrolled up so I could only see the lower half of her face. Still just a blank face. Scroll it down to the whole image and focus on the dot and the features are back.
I wonder how that white dot works.

(750 posts)The phenomena, image processing, by the human mind is extraordinary yet evolving.
The concept of diffraction here appears convoluting with the glancing properties of a white back ground to perceive a new color image that is a relating combining effect to the science of aesthetics.
Da Vinci is one of first to experiment in diffraction, however in his time the laws of physics that connected linear mathematics appear more as art in paintings, yet delivering some reasoning about an individuals character.
The mathematical polynomial theory plays a key part in this vision sensory.
With that said a skillful individual could possibly master a powerful intuitive insight about the world around them.
A very, very, interesting post
