While looking at the dot in the center, move your head towards and away from the screen. Trying looking at different parts of the picture while you rock back and forth. What I find interesting about this illusion is that it only works away from wherever you’re focusing. We know that the fovea is physiologically different from the rest of the retina; this illusion suggests that it is computationally different as well.
