In 1951, scientist Adelbert Ames invented the "Ames Window," an optical illusion involving a rotating, trapezoidal window that appears to oscillate back and forth instead of spinning continuously.

The trick lies in the fact that the window isn’t truly rectangular at all. Instead, it’s carefully distorted to exploit the brain’s tendency
