BEST IMAGES OF THE WEEK: IMG! episode 4
A family photo that's not at all creepy, except for that guy.
Super Mario Brothers turns 25 years old today. It's Episode Four of IMG. Today, Kotaku brought us the 10 most bizarre iPad mods: a USB typewriter, an iPad arcade, and even an iPad skateboard. Hot on Digg right now: fantastic post-it note art! They've got wallpaper, Donkey Kong, Mario, Mega Man, and a big FU to 2D.
We've really got to cover this one! Last week, duh Mitch.com collected some of Jeffrey Scott Campbell's greatest Disney for adults work. Enjoy! [Music] By a BuzzFeed's collection last week: morbidly obese Disney princesses. I actually found these for the first time this week!
Artist Larry Kagan creates abstract wire art for walls. At first, it just looks like wire spaghetti. But when you turn on the lights, BAM! The structures are built to cast clean, accurate shadows of common shapes. Sometimes they even meld with the shadows to create one super scary cool picture.
But there are definitely pictures creepier than just shadows: bunnies, cats, and the most terrifying of them all — what a dick! Screw it! Let's move on to illusions. I first saw this when I was a psychology student, but if you guys haven't seen it yet, it's worth it.
Stare at the center dot and don't let your eyes move. Slowly, the circle of pink dots will completely disappear until you move your eyes and they pop back into place. And here's a brightness illusion from the annual TED conference: this color is exactly the same as this color. Seriously! Lay your finger over the crease and without the depth clues, the colors match.
Are you ready for a doozy? Put your finger on the red dot and concentrate. Go ahead, good, good. Now wait… and whoa! You guys are a bunch of bunt touches!
Let's move on to facebook.com slash vsauce gaming. This is the place where you guys can submit your favorite images from each week. My favorite submissions from last week were crazy trees! When I saw this and this, I looked like this!
That does it for Episode Four of IMG. I'll see you next week! And in the meantime, check out our Facebook page to see what others are submitting. Thanks for watching! Subscribe for more. Bye bye! [Music]
