That looks cool in video, but I bet it’s super annoying and distracting to actually sit in
Yeh, also it's forced perspective aka the Trompe l'Oeil effect.
If you are sitting in the corner, it probably looks strange
I'm struggling to figure out how this is forced perspective, it's just sloshing water with no frame of reference for scale?!
I guess, the point is that when you sit near the wall, it will look like the wave is travelling the angled wall super fast to then transfer to the perpendicular wall and move normally.
I guess, that constant shaking and splashing was chosen for a demonstration exactly because it obscures the fact that travel speeds aren't consistent
