I'm, like, okay with being a little crazy.
The time, energy, words, weight lost, nails bitten, scabs picked and nights I've struggled thru for this are easy to judge from afar, right?

The reason we perceive the wheels are turning is once again to do with how the retina treats depth perception. This one and some of the others where the items are motionless will always seem to be in motion based on what is re-determined by the pupil opening and closing allowing the retina to determine the amount of depth & interpreting it as motion.
It is all in the "minds-eye".

ooohh, very cool. I actually thought they were turning and maybe supposed to move closer, and closer and form one or something.

This did nothing...I did not see the wheels moving at all. Weird because most of these illusions have worked perfectly.
