> That is the whole point of the illusion, that there are two filled circles that flash and your brain perceives it as 3 flashes
Where is this from?
I could be missing something, but everything I can see in the article and the abstract of the paper indicates that the point of the illusion is that showing three flashes causes us to misplace the second flash as being located at the midpoint of the first and second.
Yeah it's supposed to be two flash positions only, but I missed that the last one is supposed to flash twice which it apparently doesn't in the gif so that was the confusion.
