Perception Hats
Description: A vintage-inspired parody design featuring a sly raccoon “memetic specialist” operating from the fictional Department of Information Warfare & Memes, complete with tactical gear, a laptop, and retro internet humor references. The distressed military-style artwork blends espionage aesthetics with meme culture, creating a humorous graphic that satirizes online influence, digital propaganda, and the chaotic power of internet memes.
Description: D. H. LAWRENCE quote: I should feel the air move against me, and feel the things I touched, instead of having only to look at them. I’m sure life is all wrong because it has become much too visual—we can neither hear nor feel nor understand, we can only see. I’m sure that is entirely wrong.
Description: "From the evil demon of the Meditations to the thought experiment of 1981 and today's simulation hypothesis, the question remains: how could you tell? A clean lab-style illustration for curious minds. The brain in a vat: a brain floating in a jar, wired to a computer that projects a perfect world of sun and mountains. Is any of this real? Descartes' evil demon, the dream argument and simulation theory in one image. For philosophy and neuroscience students, sci-fi fans, gamers, programmers, skeptics and anyone who has wondered whether reality is real. A mind-bending gift.
Description: A clever duck-rabbit optical illusion presented as a minimalist hand-drawn graph, with one axis labeled “Duck” and the other “Rabbit.” The ambiguous animal sketch can appear as either creature depending on perspective, creating a playful visual perception puzzle. Simple white linework against a black background gives the artwork a chalkboard aesthetic while highlighting themes of psychology, cognitive illusion, perspective, ambiguity, brain teasers, and classic visual paradoxes.
