I hope this community becomes more active, I love illusions.

What. the. fuck?
When it flashes a small black/white line is positioned on a specific borders to give a feeling of movement.
If you want to understand better how -- pause it when the cubes are rotating. The white/black edge lines actually have to gradient across the line so that one half of the cube moves one way and the other half moves the other. You can work out which way 'turns' what and how they're placed. I'm sure a cube was the easiest, but you should theoretically be able to do this with any shape.
Yes thank you. I covered up the arrows and it still looked like they were moving.
They aren't but the stuff inside their borders actively tries to look 3D and animate in a way that would make it look like movement (like shaders in games). And it's a shame the creator had to add those arrows inside as they don't affect anything.
You can cover them up and it still works, they just add visual appeal. (Same reason there's two cubes.)
You know what's fun?
Treat it like a stereoscopic image. Let your eyes do the trick that works for those, the "magic eye" images and such.
The cubes stop "moving" entirely, but they now have depth
Damn, I'm gonna have to roll a bigger joint..

This is upsetting me and I would like more please
Is this supposed to be a static image with a fake play button in it? Because that's all I'm getting. No animation, no changing pixels, and no illusion of movement
Nah, it's an animation for maybe 30s

Well, now I'm beginning to question reality... More, please!
