But they never fucking show the actual room from a different angle. I hate this and every other "explanation" it's so frustrating. I'm going to build my own damned trick room and film it from every angle possible.

I love perspective tricks like that. Maybe I'm a nit-picker, but I think the left side of the room should be a little farther away...I can see the tipped floor and ceiling a bit.
@TopFix14 жыл бұрын
For some reason I can't see this illusion? I mean, I can see that the person on one side appears bigger, but when I look at the room, I can see that it's changed, altered, or structured in a way that the person being bigger makes sense? Hm...

@TodaSyo I do remember a study of Aborigionies in Australia where they had a hard time seeing things in photographs- even pictures of mountians, because they didn't have practice with strongly foreshortened vision. I can see how if you weren't used to walls you'd see this illusion very differently.
@kris24214 жыл бұрын
So if we were born into thinking that walls did not look parallel or not even knowing what a room looks like at all then the room would appear different to our eyes than it does now?
@Britlurker15 жыл бұрын
Its built into your brain, you maybe can 'force' yourself to see the the room as it really is. But its not about assumptions, its about hard wiring of the brain.

I have never seen the Ames room live and have a question with regard to this optical trick: Why does the visual system not detect the different distances through the accommodation? Why does the depth cue of accommodation (eye focussing) not work here? Thank’s in advance for any hint.

@felagund2313 жыл бұрын
people forget that this only works with one eye, if you were to stand there yourself, it would ruin the illusion because of depth perception. you would see that the room is not normal shaped. youd have to clsoe one eye for it to work. so even if tribal people that were not broguht up in houses with paralle walls, they would be fooled if they saw this video, but not if they/we were standing there in person.

Yet, I wonder if there have been studies and hypotheses drawn as to why a more isolated community would lack this trait of perceptive assumption. Best wishes.

@manbot4715 жыл бұрын
If you're smart enough you use the word deduce instead of deduct.
So, let me get this straight. In the frame at 0:30, you can see that the left side of the room is far bigger than the mind. So, when I look at this room from a peephole, my mind just pretends it never saw that in a "Your feeble human mind cannot comprehend the truth and is adjusting it to a form it can handle" sort a way, and my mind mentally makes the left side of the room small enough to match the right side. Is that it?
@AdemKae15 жыл бұрын
...actually if you haven't ever seen this, it is hard to make such an assumption. just like Ram says, its how we know all rooms to be so our brain makes an assumption about it.
