There is no consensus on why the dress elicits such discordant perceptions.[31] The neuroscientists Bevil Conway and Jay Neitz believe they are a result of how the human brain perceives colour and chromatic adaptation.
The interesting thing for me is how badly I want one side to be wrong and one to be right. It’s weird that that feeling is there and so strong… for something seemingly insignificant
The dress was black and blue, but the conditions of the photograph caused many to perceive it as white and gold, creating debate. Within a week, more than ten million tweets had mentioned the dress. The retailer of the dress, Roman Originals, reported a surge in sales and produced a one-off version in white and gold sold for charity.
Yeah, that’s interesting. Like you I can usually flip these back and forth. I only know it can be seen differently because half the world reports they see it differently. Weird, eh?
It’s just not possible for it to be white and gold.
And it for real isn’t.
That’s all I see.
Damn, your world must look really weird.
I wouldn’t know any other. :)
It’s still gold and white to me damn it!
Have fun being wrong!

The interesting thing, for me, is how people’s reactions to the dress sparked that many studies of the phenomenon.

I mean we do know what color the dress actually was: Blue and black

Alright buddy. I’ll fight you. It’s definitely white and gold.
You can perceive it however you want but the manufacturer was found and it was blue and black. Kinda figured that would be common knowledge by now.

Bruh…it still looks gold and white.
Sorry your brain isn’t processing the image right
Here is a screenshot from my phone. Fight me.
Still black and blue, sorry your brain is screwing with you
No, thank you
You will fit right in here at Lemmy… :p
I can’t see blue and black
Me neither. Usually I can twist my brain to see illusions the other way, but even covering up the surroundings doesn’t flip it
