Just a reminder that Tylenol doesnβt cause autism. Genetics cause autism. It is not a disease or an illness, it cannot be βfixedβ and there is no epidemic. It is a neurological difference. Autism can run in families. The shame doesnβt have to.

Next time youβre mesmerised by motion design, remember: your brain is moving with it.
With structured rhythmβloops, seamless transitions, and perfectly timed effectsβthese animations build a physiological and emotional connection with the viewer.

π§ Reduce cognitive load, making complex visuals effortless to process.
β€οΈ Amplify emotional impact, drawing the viewer deeper in.
π§π»ββοΈTrigger flow states, similar to those experienced in meditation or intense focus.
Neural Oscillations & the Rhythm of Motion
Watching synchronised movementβwhether in animation, dance, or footstepsβtriggers neural oscillation alignment. Brainwaves (alpha, beta, gamma) sync with the motion, creating a meditative effect. This is why these designs feel both calming and immersive.
What makes these animations so mesmerizing? Why do they pull viewers in, creating an almost hypnotic effect? The secret lies in neural synchronisationβa phenomenon where the brain aligns with rhythmic motion, enhancing focus, emotion, and engagement.
