Digital actuality is the brand new actuality. Woah.
Michael Abrash, the chief scientist for Fb’s Oculus, took the stage throughout day two of the F8 Developer Convention in San Francisco to blow everybody’s thoughts with some trippy optical illusions.
Through the keynote, Abrash highlighted some fascinating illusions to clarify how we are able to trick our eyes into pondering what we’re seeing is actuality. And in accordance with Abrash, these perceptions, and the assumptions our mind makes about them, are what make digital actuality work.

4:04 i did
Look at the last 20 sec of the video. They are not the same video ! Look carefully to the upper lip of the lady …..
Is it weird if every picture is grey for me
Am i the only one who heard ' par par par ' instead of bar or far.
Best intro
Wait I get it! The oculus rift says bar but reality its far?
The pill thing doesn't work on me
Who else's "line detectors" fire and sees the same patterns on the grid before the dots are added?
Anyone got some tin foil?
"The fact that reality is whatever your mind infers…"
The word you're looking for is perception, that is certainly not the definition of reality. The fact that the receiver is broken doesn't imply the inexistence of the sender.
Like other comments I've seen, the pills were both grey for me. Also, once I knew the construction of the dinosaur I was able to see it. The others my mind did as he suggested it would.
Superb
Never noticed the differences in the pills

The pills looked grey and grey!!
The dinosaur looked messed up! I saw no face unless I closed my eyes
Also the video was stupid and I stopped

The silly thing is that I was able to see the dragon for really what it was, and apparently I'm not the only one.
