"VSS 2007 Logo"
According to Simone, this logo is composed by two illusions of him, Kai (Hamburger) and Professor Alan Stubbs: The Rotating Tilted Lines (Perception 2006, 35 853-857) and The Breathing Light (Perception 2006, 35 1573-1577), moving back and forward in front of the image will elicit the illusory effects. "I'm happy to inform you that the 2007 VSS logo that will be on the bags and on the t-shirts (news of this year), was made by me and by Prof. Alan Stubbs!" (in email received April 5)

Akiyoshi's comment: Excellent! There were so many VSS attendees who had a bag with this logo (see below) and walked around the downtown that Sarasota people asked us where they could get the bag.
Akiyoshi's comment 2: Actually, I also submitted a work to the logo contest.The applied design is shown below, where color illusion is exhibited.
"My submitted work for VSS 2007 Logo "
The reds of "VSS" are the same color or the blue and green of "2007" are the same color. This illusion is the "chromatic" dungeon illusion.
