Motion on Click
Hacking the refresh rate: why we see liquid in pixels.
🧐 What do you see?▼
The dark grid appears completely frozen. Click anywhereon the surface. An expanding shockwave (ripple) will move outward from the point of contact, distorting the grid as it passes.
🧠 Why this works▼
This is an example of Apparent Fluidity. Even though the grid is a series of hard lines, the high-speed expansion of the circle triggers our brain's "liquid motion" sensors.
The Intensity control dictates how "thick" the expanding wave is, changing the perceived viscosity of the "space" inside the box.
