Interesting collective behavior 3: Sensitive to a MOVING World. Time and motion important.

Fatigue: prolonged stimulation (staring at a lamp) causes a weaker response and a negative afterimage.
Successive lightness contrast: a gray object looks darker after looking at white.
Positive afterimage: We see a flash as a bright spot after it has gone away. Over stimulated nerves keep firing.

Fatigue and Involuntary eye movement
Eye movement moves the image around so that new areas are stimulated.
Without eye movement, images fade. This has been verified by experiments that fix the image on the retina.
Eye movement causes wavy lines to appear as though in motion, because the afterimage interferes with the moved image.

The eye is moving all the time. It corrects for motion…

The only difference between the center and edge is the lack of any feature to “focus” on.
IF there are edges, but not if edges are absent.

Other illusions
There are many optical illusions with varying explanations. Many are poorly understood.

Are the blue shades the same?
Lateral inhibition cannot explain this!

Lateral inhibition alone does not explain this effect, the Munker-White illusion.

Müller-Lyer illusion

This is the back corner of a room, it is further away, hence it must be larger.

Frankfurter illusion
http://www.michaelbach.de/ot/sze_Frankfurter/index.html
While focused on the background, hold your two index fingers horizontally in front of your eyes, not touching. A piece of finger will appear to float in space.

Motion channel, keeps firing after watching a moving object, causing motion aftereffect.

Motion illusion (A. Kitaoka)Note that each green circle is rotated slightly from its neighbor.
As your eye jumps around, it sees the circles rotation.
