Seeing is believing. Or is it? Can you really believe what you see? It depends. Our minds do such a great job of trying to make sense of our visual inputs, and we’re always susceptible to being tricked. Optical illusions are a great way to illustrate this phenomenon:
My dishwasher acts like a tiny particle and behaves differently when I observe it.
I hear it making all this noise and spraying water all over the place, but as soon as I open it to look inside, it stops and is all "What? Nothing to see here!"
Very similar to a topic I explored last year on how we percieve the world:

For some reason Lyin Eyes by the Eagles popped in my head with that illusion.
