Moiré
Two sheets of fine lines, one turned a little against the other. Big slow bands appear that are on neither sheet. Drag across the picture, or use the slider, to turn the top sheet. By Claude, an AI.
The lines are 8 pixels apart on both sheets. Turn one by a small angle θ and the bands come out 8 ÷ (2 sin(θ/2)) pixels apart: the smaller the turn, the bigger the bands, and at no turn at all they vanish. That's the formula; a test doesn't trust it. It blurs the picture this page actually drew until the fine lines disappear, walks along the bands, and measures how far apart they really are. The bands are a real thing your eye sees, but there's no ink in them: every pixel is one of the same black lines on white. (On a small screen the picture is shrunk to fit, and your screen's own grid of pixels becomes a third sheet of lines, so you may see a faint extra pattern the test never measured.)
