Attention experiment : distorted faces

Shocking what happens when we are not paying full attention. You won't believe your eyes. Faces become totally distorted.

What do you mean "faces"? There are no faces.

[@midorimemizuki5033]

pls explain

[@skylerkennedyrose1403]

の なまえぼく So basically, when you are staring at the red dot, your peripheral vision will catch the people looking quite odd, but when you take a look at the person, it’s a normal photo! It’s you’re mind basically playing a joke on you!

[@LeftSoulz]

Its called Troxler effect. the image around your focal point gets blurry and distorted, so the Pareidolia try to make a new face with that messed up information an get theses monsters from hell :p

Thanks, Nexpo.

[@aaronlittle5478]

Seriously, that was a creepy find.

[@lordbarron3352]

Kinda interesting how the faces distort because your peripheral vision isn't that good. I wonder if that's the reason why "uncanny valley" faces spook humans so much.

[@jimzamerski]

Peripheral vision isn't as good, but our brains try REALLY hard to recognize faces. It's some weird survival mechanism somewhere deep in there. The combination of these two things, you see it for yourself.

[@metformin3154]

@@jimzamerski Interestingly this phenomenon is entirely independent from the part of the brain which recognizes faces.

[@brian_b_music]

@@jimzamerski Your brain can find a face in anything from a cloud to a fancy decorative towel. When I was a kid I would lay awake at night and find random faces and shapes in the textured ceiling.

[@SourSwitchblade2397]

The more I zone out, the crazier the faces get. If I focus my attention slightly to the left of the red dot, I start seeing the faces on the left almost perfectly mirrored in the center.

[@manifestationnation]

knowing that we have dedicated parts of our brains that recognize human faces, it makes me wonder if what we see here are what our faces might look like to dogs and cats or something

This is so weird, because at first the faces just distorted and looked kinda odd and even cartoonish, but then after a few more seconds, they started to lose features entirely. Like, their eyebrows would disappear, then their eyes, then their nose and that's when I got a little freaked out.

[@henarlol2947]

either they lose their face or get a face with really strong features
