Review: More Than Illusions
2008-05-05 11:01:00 More Than Illusionsby JT SchultzVampire prince Gabriel Paseillo does not intend to get married—ever. His father has other plans which involve Venice and a brooch. He insists Gabe go and get it and insists on Gabe going to Venice to track down a brooch, which he believes will guarantee him a bride. Only he wasn’t counting on finding the beautiful FBI Agent Arianna, the crime lord trying to kill her or changing his mind about marriage."More Than Illusions" is an original vampire adventure that had me both laughing and biting my nails.Arianna is a great heroine. In mortal danger from a foe intent on eliminating her, I appreciated her strength; she doesn't whine or cower from danger. She's also sassy, sarcastic and has no problem staring down five-hundred-year-old master vampires, and her in-your-face attitude was a delight to watch, especially as she rocks Gabriel's world.Gabriel is a marriage-phobic, playboy vampire prince, with dreamy blue eyes and a playful nature that I coul...
Impressive Ads Using Illusion Effects.
2008-04-29 20:10:00 Impressive Ads Using Illusion Effects.So what do you think was going on in the minds of the ad creators when they came up with these ads? These are some of the most interesting ads we did come across where illusions are used beautifully to promote products. One thing for sure, we don't come across these types of ads very often which again very much fulfills the basic concept what the ad makers want. Leaving a long lasting impression on the public. Of these ads except for the 'British Airways' ad & Digital Channel, no details are available as of now; who the creators are, about the company & the concept. If you got any hint, then do drop in a line.

Most Interesting Illusions.
2008-04-07 21:33:00 Most Interesting Illusions.Squares A & B are the same shade of gray. This optical illusion was created by Edward H. Adelson, Professor of Vision Science at MIT.Winner of 2 gold & 1 silver award at the 2004 Clio awards, this ad campaign used combined words to make images.So what do you make out of this one? Hint: see the shape in between the pillars.Is this window seen from above or seen from below?Are they walking on the wall?Is she wearing spectacles?Here is another great optical illusion photo of a Lufthansa 747-400 & a United Airlines 757-200 which were on simultaneous approaches to runways 28L & 28R at San Francisco. As per the separation requirement for flying parallel & simultaneous approaches is 225 meters (738 feet). But due to the fact that Lufthansa 747 being three times larger than the 757 plane & being slightly behind the other plane created this incredible optical illusion but as a matter of fact these two aircraft were at a safe distance while approaching.Double words ...

12 Most Amazing Illusions.
2008-03-10 18:05:00 12 Most Amazing Illusions.1. Design Interior: Optical Illusions In Reality:Here optical illusions are integrated in interior designs. Its really quite a nice idea to do this. The visitors who aren't standing in the proper angle won't have a clue about the concept. They wont be able to make out what these lines & curves on the walls are for. This way you can choose whom to share this little secret with.2. Illusions Of Faces:If you watch the above images from your seat in front of the computer, Mr. Angry is on the left, and Mrs. Calm is on the right. Get up from your seat, & move back. They switch places! This illusion was created by Dr. Aude Oliva & Philippe G. Schyns, MIT.Here is another piece of work created by Dr. Aude Oliva (Ph.D. Brain and Cognitive Sciences, MIT) & Dr. Antonio Torralba (Ph.D. Computer Science and Artificial Intelligence Laboratory). Again if you watch the above images while seated in front of the computer, you might think that these people are not happy. Now...

Rainbow Nation and other Illusions
2008-02-19 14:50:00 A rainbow does not exist. It is an optical illusion. A magic trick of Mother Nature beautiful to behold but that’s the only way you can experience it. The same applies for the Rainbow Nation of South Africa as it’s an illusion and just window-dressing for the rest of the world. It remains a dream and a tangible thing it is not. Anyone who states differently is lying. They are bullshitting and they all know it. Still, they would rather die than admit to failure. They will patronizingly tell you that they are busy with “nation-building” while they widely practice racism and bigotry. Theirs is a noble quest not to be questioned. Especially not by the likes of me that decided to leave because I prefer not to be murdered by criminals. You see, according to them, plain common sense now equates a traitor and racist. Because I opted to leave South Africa when the opportunity was offered I am a bad, very bad person. The ones that do not have the means or opportunity are now acting...

Shed light on your ignorance
2008-01-30 02:12:00 What are your most bizarre or agonizing beliefs and why do you color them this way? Why choose to project certain emotions with certain images? How does it shape your illusions?Illusions may be seen as mental blocks you create when you decide not to deal with your emotional discomfort or its underlying causes. You have an incredible ability to condition your mind to believe anything, and your choices always offer ongoing chances to learn. Whenever you generate negative emotions, your vibration is slow and dense and life you choose to experience is on that wavelength. You draw discomfort and pain toward you or people who seem to evoke it. This is your unconscious request. Vibes reverberrate. You convince yourself of doubt and fear when you only really invent them. You may feel disheartened by aspects of your existence, and yet, you create it all by refusing to confront patterns you don't want to see. When people choose not to be accoun...
