The Dragon Illusion

Our much be-badged fun scout, Noise E. Piranha, earns yet one more merit for his discovery of the Amazing Dragon Illusion

First, download this pdf file. After you've taken a good look at the plan for making your own dragon, download this video to discover why you so desperately want to.

It seems to me that our love of illusions, as so wonderfully represented by the Grand Illusions collection, says something rather delicious about our actual selves. How, on the one hand, we so much love to be fooled. And how, on the other hand, we just absolutely have to figure out what fooled us and why. I think, somehow, it connects us with the fools we are, and aren't.
