For some reason, the sculpture of the two golden rings that spin on top of each other in Jet Force Gemini never left my mind. It's nice that someone else also gives it a second look.

Reminds me of The Meanie, from the videogame The Sentinel. They look like this and they are deployed by the enemy when you can't be seen. The Meanie rotates around until it can see you and then teleports you (generally bad).

I was enamored with the same effect in Superman (1978) when I was a kid.

@akkartik It's a really nice illusion! It appears to defy physics, then you realize it's just a solid structure rotating and your mind is blown. I wonder if there are earlier examples of the effect?

trying to find all of the teddy bears in that game to be able to finish it ruined my life as a child xD
