🧠 Scientific Explanation & Psychophysics
The Moiré effect occurs due to visual spatial aliasing. When two high-frequency line patterns overlap, the visual cortex cannot isolate individual lines, instead integrating the phase difference into macro-level visual bands known as fringe patterns. Small micro-shifts in angle yield rapid macro movements.
Why This Works in the Brain
The visual cortex processes incoming sensory information using specialized receptive fields and cortical feature detectors. Illusions occur when mathematical geometries produce conflicting spatial signals, exposing how the brain constructs subjective perception from objective electromagnetic light waves.
