Stare at the center block for about 30 seconds in each of the following pictures. Don't move your eyes and try not to blink. What you'll notice is that the confetti will start to disappear, piece by piece.
EXPLANATION: 1) Your brain can only keep so many objects in working memory, and if it isn't moving, you don't see it as a threat so it kind of "goes to the back of your mind."
2) Since you're staring at the same place, the cells in your eyes that are transmitting the information to your brain keep firing the same information. Eventually, they get "worn out" and so that's why you see a bit of an afterimage, which blends in with the gray.
