Optical Illusion

Here's what I found: Optical Illusion #1 It took me a minute to figure out what was going on, but I found it highly amusing. I'm not quite sure how it works, but it must have something to do with how the inner and outer circles are composed of opposite facing parallelograms. Also, it only works if you stare at the center so it must also have something to do with your peripheral vision. If anyone has any more specific ideas on how this works, please share because I can't come up with a direct answer!

I'm not really sure how it works, but that is really weird. I don't even have to move my head in and out to see if moving. When I just look at the center of it, it still looks like it's moving a little bit. It must have something to do with the way the parallelograms are positioned...but yea I'm not too sure either what the exact explanation is
