Hi

Go to the site below and then click on the java applet.

http://viscog.beckman.uiuc.edu/grafs/demos/15.html

It is a film of a basketball game..you have to concentrate and count how many times the white team pass the ball.

Then watch it again, but don't concentrate and/or attempt to count the number of passes

See if the second time you see something that you didn't the first time around.

Warning the applet is 6Mb so takes a couple of minutes to load.

We did this with an audience of 300 people and less than 10 saw it the first time around

Hmmm quite cool. I see what the video tries to show. Sometimes if you concentrate on something too hard you cant see whats right in front of you.

By the way I saw it the first go.
Spoiler:
Im hoping that its the gorilla walking and beating his chest and walking away and 15 passes

How do you post to the stacks or get access...couldn't find it in the FAQs, looked really hard or am I being dumb?
