I understand it's an optical illusion, but I know that some optical illusions take advantage of a screen with a high refresh rate or a low refresh rate or some unique aspect of OLED or something. I'm just wondering if this particular optical illusion requires some other screen technology that I haven't used with this image.

But you're right, I might just be wired wrong.

I think it also indicates that what we "see" (in our mind) isn't necessarily chronologically coherent. Some parts of your field of vision might be from earlier or later points in time compared to others. As in it can still be processing the previous frame when it starts displaying the simplest parts of a newer frame.
