Mighty Optical Illusions

Aphex Twin’s Devil Face Illusion

Remeber how back in the old days, people accused Black Sabbath of sneaking satanic messages into their song, that could only be heard by playing it backwards. First time I was entrodouced to this kind of hidden mesagges, was when I saw Little Nicky staring Adam Sandler.

Well, that’s nothing compared to Aphex Twin, who sneaked in the Aphex Twin face (Richard David James, himself) in their Windowlicker EP in 1999. The face can be revealed when the song is played by a computer software that visualizes sound waves, (ie Cool Edit Pro). Here’s the result! Was it done or purpose, or just another optical illusion, judge for yourself… Jump inside this article for more simmilar stuff! This belongs to Multiple Meanings Category.
