| Awesome! | ||||||
| Nice sound loop. | ||||||
| not bad at all | ||||||
| fooled me maen | ||||||
| it is a good sound loop, it's just really unfortunate that the little click always has to show up when it resets. overall a very neat effect. frustrating as well. | ||||||

| @PCF: I watermarked it (right bottom of the explosion, hard to see, but definitifly a proof)
@Rellikmit: whats the point? (ups, did I feed a troll?) | ||||||
| Nice to see that Rellikmit is contributing a lot to ytmnd with all those wonderful sites he makes. | ||||||
| +5 for Shepard Tones | ||||||
| What the f*ck dude? | ||||||
| Clevar! | ||||||
| That was pretty great. | ||||||
| amaxing, love the sound | ||||||
| 5... 4... 3... 2... 1... Liftoff! Godspeed! | ||||||

| How the f*ck does this audio illusion work???? I must know do you have the source for it? | ||||||
| niiice.... you win sir. | ||||||
| Nice. | ||||||
| GOD DAMMIT! I couldn't stop watching it... nice, though... | ||||||
| nice'd | ||||||
| genius | ||||||
| somebody needs to make a tutorial about these | ||||||
| GO GO GO!!!! | ||||||
| A very nice debut. I've seen this illusion a million times, but the sound clinched it. | ||||||
| Holy sh*t. | ||||||
| alllmmoossttt..... | ||||||
| F*cking amazing. | ||||||
| Pardon me while I rest my brain. | ||||||
| lol ns shot | ||||||
| It's like an event horizon effect, nice one. | ||||||
| AAAH! stop that .. 5 | ||||||
| i'm sorry but no matter how hard i try i can't shake the feeling | ||||||
| 1ed. | ||||||
| That has to be frustrating to be the pilot. | ||||||
| I've seen tons of images like this, but I don't think I've ever heard a sound illusion. At least one that feels like its always going up. Amazing. | ||||||
| It's only funny until it happens to you! | ||||||
| it's only funny until it happens to you! | ||||||
| Well done, young grasshopper. | ||||||
| Stupid | ||||||
| dude AWESOME!
| ||||||
| |||||||
| These pretzels are making me thirsty! | ||||||
| Insufficient. | ||||||
| Can someone explain the sound illusion? I get it a bit but, how's it working to confuse my ears? | ||||||
| Oh also, for the ultimate eyef*ck, click and drag your mouse on the picture... it'll pause it but... it'll still look likes its moving | ||||||
| My head asplode | ||||||
| It...it never takes off? I stared at this for 3 hours and IT NEVER TAKES OFF?!? | ||||||
| 5'd for getting me to watch it for a full two minutes. FÜCK humans are dumb! | ||||||
| i like it | ||||||
| gravity cat not amused!!! | ||||||
| 5 | ||||||
| i kept watching it for like 12 minutes but it still would take off :( | ||||||
| Weeeeeee | ||||||
| nice mindf*ck | ||||||
| Heh, we had to synthesize this in my DSP class. It's too easy to tell when it restarts! | ||||||
| One of the best optical illusions ever. | ||||||
| its... beutiful | ||||||
| Try harder, Mr. Rocket! You'll make it!!! | ||||||
| This is amazing. Both the image and sound are perfect. | ||||||
| It is green. | ||||||
| You can do it! coem on! Keep it up! Come on...just a bit more.... | ||||||
| a spaceship farting for 2 minutes | ||||||
| Whoa! | ||||||
| 4 | ||||||
| |||||||
| wow | ||||||
| nice! | ||||||
| OMG I think it just killed me. | ||||||
| Isn't there an 80s / 90s song that uses a reverse shepard scale sounding just like this one? | ||||||
| dude the sound never stops even when it starts over, how you do that | ||||||
| Shepard Tone ftw | ||||||
| Illusion FTW! | ||||||
| |||||||
| How it worx:
The Shepard tone:
There are several tones that are pitching up und fading out when they become higher.
At the same time very low tones are fading in.
Easy, eh?
http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/0/0c/Shepard_tone.jpg
Four-Stroke Apparent Motion:
There are 4 pictures of the Rocket.
From pic 1 to 2 the rockets (the background) moves forward.
From pic 2 to 3 the rocket moves backward, but since the contrast is reversed there are no pixels that look like jumping back.
and so on... | ||||||
| @shoover: I faved myself coz I tested the feature (I'm new to ytmnd) and now the fav stars don't go away (deleted it from my favs).
It's neat I know | ||||||
| |||||||
| thats cool. | ||||||
| @demondyne: I was intrested in that. Should by dissonant. | ||||||
| thx for teh headache | ||||||
| Very nice work, very subtle. | ||||||
| That rocket was designed entirely by committee. | ||||||
| People should be able to favorite their own YTMND's. | ||||||
| 5'd because of nice visual effect making me feel like i was lifting off, - 1 for no hentai tenticles :( | ||||||
| 3 for faving yourself | ||||||
| Gosh it pissed me off that there was a short stop between the loops! Ruined the effect. | ||||||
| Dudes, I faved my as a test and I'm not even in my favs anymore and the sound is perfekt, but waveloops sux to much to get it smoth. | ||||||
| Lolz, I just figured out it was still in my favs, perhaps I tried to delete it during the horrible lag yesterday. | ||||||
| yeah. it'll never get there... because there IS NO MOON! | ||||||
| lol | ||||||
| I have the Idea for a cartoon with moon
dunno when I will have the time 4 itp
next up is the YTMND-Fridge, but I did just a sketch and some image reasearchs yet. | ||||||
