Just something I've been kicking around for a while.  Suggestions welcome!

Amazing how strong these illusions are!

Agreed. I was taken aback by their strength. Even if I put a straight edged
piece of paper over the bottom half the very next row strongly curves, it's
remarkable.

I wonder if they appear just as vivid
when you build these with real bricks. Can you reveal what your inspiration
source for these optical tricks was?

Some of these I have seen before (the wavy banded rectanges for example, and the
gray dots around the black squares) but the use of round 1x1s to force some of
them to work is sheer genius. Those seem new at least to me.

Very nice work, thanks for sharing. Spotlighted.
