Set of ambiguous or bi-stable (i.e., reversing) two-dimensional forms developed around 1915 by Edgar Rubin.
Set of ambiguous or bi-stable (i.e., reversing) two-dimensional forms developed around 1915 Rubin explained the illusion as follows: One can then state as a fundamental principle: When two fields have a common border, and one is seen as figure and the other as ground, the immediate perceptual experience is characterized by a shaping effect which emerges from the common border of the fields and which operates only on one field or operates more strongly on one than on the other.

Gwendolyn Shepherd (Maria Ehrich) is actually a very normal 16-year-old teen, except for the time-travel gene that is passed down in the family.
Gwendolyn Shepherd is actually a very normal 16-year-old teen. What's annoying is that her family definitely has a tad too many secrets. They all have to do with the time-travel gene that is passed down in the family. Everyone is certain that Gwen's cousin Charlotte has the gene, and so everything is all Charlotte, all the time. Until the day Gwen, out of the clear blue sky, suddenly finds herself in London at the end of the 19th century. She knows right away that she, and not Charlotte, was born to be a time traveler - even if she could certainly do without it. Just as she could do without Charlotte's arrogant boyfriend Gideon de Villiers, with whom she now has to forge an alliance in order to clear up the biggest secret of her family history. One thing is clear: she will do everything possible to solve the ancient mysteries. What isn't clear is that one should not fall in love between the times. For that really makes things complicated!

In between searching through history for the other time-travelers and asking for a bit of their blood (gross!), she's been trying to figure out what all the mysteries and prophecies surrounding the Circle really mean. At least Gwen has plenty of help. Her best friend Lesley follows every lead diligently on the Internet. James the ghost teaches Gwen how to fit in at an eighteenth century party. And Xemerius, the gargoyle demon who has been following Gwen since he caught her kissing Gideon in a church, offers advice on everything. Oh, yes. And of course there is Gideon, the Diamond. One minute he's very warm indeed; the next he's freezing cold. Gwen's not sure what's going on there, but she's pretty much destined to find out.

Rudolph must find Happy, the baby New Year, before midnight, New Year's Eve. Among the islands of the Archipelagos of Last Years are: 1,000,000 BC: Represented as a prehistoric island that consists of dinosaurs and cavemen. O.M. lives here. 4000 BC: Rudolph mentions that all its inhabitants wanted to do was build pyramids. 1023: Represented as a medieval island filled with fairytale characters. The year 1023 is said to be when all the well-known fairy tales and nursery rhymes actually happened. Sir 1023 lives here. 1492: Rudolph mentions that the people on that island were too busy discovering things to help them (a reference to the year of Christopher Columbus's voyage to the New World). 1776: Represented as a Colonial American island that celebrates American Independence Day on a daily basis. 1776 (AKA "Sev") lives here. 1893: Rudolph mentions that the inhabitants have never heard of Happy due to the Panic of 1893. 1965: Rudolph stated that island was "too noisy" to search for Happy. This is theoretically in reference to Beatlemania (which revolved around the British Invasion of The Beatles) and growing political unrest in the United States brought on by inner city rioting and the escalation of the Vietnam War.
