the most well known and understood. The emphasis on visual illusions occurs because vision often dominates the other senses. For example, individuals watching a ventriloquist will perceive the voice is coming from the dummy since they are able to see the dummy mouth the words. An illusion is a distortion of a sensory perception, revealing how the brain normally organizes and interprets sensory stimulation. While illusions distort reality, they are generally shared by most people. Illusions may occur with more of the human senses than vision, but visual illusions, optical illusions.

May 7th, 2011 Amrita Kaur Auckland War Memorial Museum – quite an intersting place, it’s not the Hermitage or the National Museum of Egypt, but it also has something to show and to tell. However, this time we are not going to discuss wars. On the first floor of the museum there is an exposition of the ancient everyday life of close islanders (nearly all islands from New Zealand to the equator). Their statuettes, sculptures, masks are all interesting. Maori (famous aboriginals) decorated doors of their houses with such masks, deterrent and creepy, that had to scare evil spirits or enemies away.

May 4th, 2011 Amrita Kaur The 30th of April is the day when Holland celebrates its favourite holiday – Queen’s Birthday (Konninginnedag).

In 2000 it was 110 years of the continuous governing of Holland by queens. Though this “tradition” cost the Netherlands the crown of the Luxemburg dukedom where accoding to the law, throne succession in the female line was forbidden. Its own royal dynasty appeared in the Netherlands only in 1815. Three Wilhelms had changed on the throne before 1890. And then came the turn of women.

The game industry is taking them on like they were the next big thing, and in some ways they are. After all, they are immortal. Well, maybe not immortal, but already dead. I am of course talking about zombies. They are the spoof, concern and research topic of this day and age. Some scientists have gone as far as trying to medically research whether or not zombies could ever exist in real life.

April 29th, 2011 Amrita Kaur This unique t-shirt was designed for lazy people. Of course, it was invented and manufactured in the U.S., where the culture of the lazy delights of eating in front of the TV was invented and exported to the rest of the world. What could be better than lying on the couch, play video games and enjoy a delicious lunch of hands…
