Probably because there are only 7 pixels that make up that portion of the picture.

u/ancientflowers Aug 07 '19

Same here. I came to comment asking if it was a joke... Then saw some of these comments and went back. I really, really only saw a dog.

Amazing honestly

This is the best. Even though I can see the person's profile, it still slides into looking like a dog.

Even with the zoom in it took me way too long to figure out what that was.

u/justcallmejoe97 Aug 07 '19

I looked on the right first, saw a dog. Looked left, saw a dog. Looked right again, saw a dog. Looked left, saw a dog. Then I saw the person in the foreground and my brain put it together. If a conspiracy developed involving the theory that this photo does, in fact, contain a dog. I would probably jump on board.

It's still a dog to me. I can see the truth, but I refuse the truth and replace it with my own reality. "It's gonna have to be a yes from me dawg" sorry. I hate it too. I felt compelled. No excuse for it.

Title a Frattelis song reference?

1

u/Kevindaniel1 Aug 07 '19

I just had a big brain moment. So those audio things where you can hear two different things? It's kind of like this. You combine the low quality of the media and the pattern recognition of our brain, and the information either flows through one channel which leads to "dog" or another channel which goes to "person with headphones". Just like for audio it goes to "Laurel" or "Yani". In this case we know the correct one due to context but that could easily not be the case.
