Cube

• This is a derivative of the Necker Cube.
  • Louis Albert Necker was a Swiss chrystallographer.

• If you have trouble seeing it:
  • Try rotating the image.
  • Get someone to show you.

• A wireframe cube depicted in orthographic projection loses perspective clues that would otherwise help the brain identify the cube's orientation.

• Once the brain chooses to adopt a particular perspective, it is hard to remove its cognitive trace and refresh the slate so it can try to interpret what it sees in a different way.
