So a few minutes ago, I did the whole stare-at-colored-lines thing to see the McCulloch Effect for myself. It’s pretty cool, so far. Depending on how the next day+ goes, I’ll let you know how long it stays with me. Conclusions as to my extravertedness can follow later. As a note, I stared at the images for only about 4 minutes.
Be warned, apparently you should seriously consider not doing this if you’re worried about seeing the colors for a long time after, because it can stay with you for a very long time.

I see the green haze, but the magenta is much less strong (in fact, I may be imagining the magenta). Guess I’m half as extraverted.

I don’t know, the magenta seemed pretty faint to me too. Though, it is interesting to note that the effect is still with me now, though it seems considerably less pronounced.
