Moire pattern effect

Once you start to pay attention to this, you will start seeing it everywhere. Sets of Vertical (parallel) or circular (concentric) lines can also be used to produce a similar effect. I should mention that the effect will be smaller and considerably less noticeable on YOUR device screen when viewing only the single insect screen, so don't be surprised if you can't even notice it at all. I also can't predict how or the degree to which your device will transmit It, so the best that I can do is point to the pattern for you, and perhaps you will be able to recognize it if and when you see it. This weirdness is just another visual/perceptual aberration, and as such, it is unintentional; this is just one of the wonderful side effects of our being such good pattern-recognizing machines- because empirically, the designs aren't even there.

Here, this is pretty cool, so have a look:

When the light hits your eyes
Through a screen built for flies
That's a Moiré

He says "without any magic"... from thousands of miles away with words transmitted by light beams.

Whoa.. what seems so simple until you see it. Beautiful.

[SmiloDTech]

Yeah new pocket videos !
Good to see you back ;-)

You can see the effect with a single sheet of screen because it's casting a shadow that creates the "second screen". The effect you see on television screens and monitors is a problem for graphic artists especially.

That happens in my regular vision when i look at certain patterns due to mires erlen syndrome or “visual stress” drives me fucking bonkers

[VeteranVandal]

Try with Penrose tiling. It is so cool. And Moire patterns can be a little tricky in the movement they appear to suggest...

Another interesting fact is that your video probably was bigger in size because of the patterns. The reason for this is that the way data compression works: videos that share more similarities with random noise are generally bad for the compression...

I heard you can test this for videos of the same time size to see the difference.

Looks like you're zooming in to one single square. When you rotate it Crazy

This reminds me of those moving picture ones where you slide on of these screens across a broken up picture.

[Firestormkirby]

I think a piece of wall art where one of the layers rotates would be a nice piece for guests to look at.

I get this when moving a high definition picture around on my phone or pc screen.

I saw a video about this not too long ago on Numberphile. Really cool.

[TheJohdu]

that's an antialiasing issue within the matrix... just ignore it

[Lumibear.]

I always used to think this or something similar was what they used on the set of Star Trek TOS above the corridors and behind the transporter, but now the show is in HD it looks like there's some sort of textured glass involved, this totally looks like it though. I bet if you put one layer on a glass 1" above a mirror with the other layer on the mirror itself it would look amazing.

I wonder if Nyquist played with bug screens. It seems like a lot of his theory can be illustrated with them.

[calebdresser]

Hey wood (haha get it?) you attempt a wooden bowl? On the lathe if so that would be awesome thanks

[PraetorianCuber]

I LOVE ALL THESE POCKET VIDEOS praise jesus

[luismdoz]

Whoa! Seems like the "smart" youtubers do get in sync with their videos. Here another video released a few days later where do they similar patterns based on the same visual effect

[mattcintosh]

At :40 does it do that effect on CRTs as well, or just flat panels?

[skip]

Yeah but have you ever seen a moire pattern...on weed?
