I can only look at it for about 30 seconds before it starts to hurts my eyes.
I now know that I cannot see stereograms.
I've known this about myself for a while. Mainly from those magic-eye images. (I had some luck with a "viewer" I found once that moves the image around rapidly)

I do wonder if there's some technique I'm missing, or if it would work through a VR headset. If that's not missing the point.

I think this is my first time seeing an animated stereogram. Very cool
I got acquainted with stereograms at a young age and this is absolutely awesome! Never thought it's possible to create animated ones!
The images here are not very interesting. One is just a square, and the other is a jagged foreground with ambiguous figures moving in the upper region.
Had forgotten the frustration of not being able to see these, I wonder if colour blindness is an issue ?
I always thought it was related to my (deuteranopia) colour blindness too, but actually I managed to see these ones using the technique they describe, bringing the images close to my face until they overlap, then move them further away).

I've never had any of these work for me in the past, but this one has made it click and I can now see others.
