Learners build
A motorized optical illusion that blends two drawings into one surprising image as it spins.
Learners start by building a small motorized spinner, then design paired images that appear to merge through motion.
From there, they can test timing, alignment, color, contrast, and new image combinations to create their own visual illusions.
Test
They try it, notice what happens, and compare the result with their goal.
Redesign
They make changes, add their own ideas, and improve the build through iteration.
