About: Googly eyes

An Entity of Type: Whole100003553, from Named Graph: http://dbpedia.org, within Data Space: dbpedia.org

Googly eyes, or wiggle eyes, are small plastic crafting items used to imitate eyeballs. Googly eyes traditionally are composed of a white plastic or card backing covered by a clear, hard-plastic shell, encapsulating a black plastic disk. The combination of a black circle over a white disk mimics the appearance of the sclera and pupil of the eye to humorous effect. The inner black disk is allowed to move freely within the larger clear plastic shell, which makes the eyes appear to move when the googly eyes are tilted or shaken.

  • Googly eyes, or wiggle eyes, are small plastic crafting items used to imitate eyeballs. Googly eyes traditionally are composed of a white plastic or card backing covered by a clear, hard-plastic shell, encapsulating a black plastic disk. The combination of a black circle over a white disk mimics the appearance of the sclera and pupil of the eye to humorous effect. The inner black disk is allowed to move freely within the larger clear plastic shell, which makes the eyes appear to move when the googly eyes are tilted or shaken. The plastic shells come in a variety of sizes ranging from diameters of 3⁄16 inch (4.8 mm) to over 24 inches (610 mm). The inner disks come in a variety of colors including pink, blue, yellow, red and green. Googly eyes are used for a variety of arts and crafts projects including pipe cleaner farm animals, silly sock puppets, mischievous pranks, and other creations. Googly eyes may also be attached to inanimate objects in order to give the objects a "silly" or "cute" appearance. This use often personifies the objects for a humorous effect, or to make an object less threatening and more appealing. (en)
  • Les yeux remuants ou yeux mobiles (aussi appelés familièrement googly eyes, d'après l'anglais) sont de petits accessoires de bricolage qui prennent la forme d'yeux mobiles adhésifs en plastique et qui sont utilisés pour imiter les globes oculaires humains. Les yeux remuants sont utilisés pour une variété de projets d'art et de bricolage, souvent enfantins. Ils peuvent également être fixés à des objets inanimés afin de leur donner une apparence humoristique, mignonne ou encore légèrement ridicule. Cette personnification des objets met à profit la paréidolie et l'anthropomorphisme. (fr)
  • 動眼(どうがん、英語: Googly eyes)は、人形等に付けられる擬似的な目である。特にこの動眼は、天井が透明な素材で作られたドーム状のカプセル(白目)内に、固定されていない自由に動く目(黒目)が内包されている。プラプラと黒目が動く滑稽な様はむしろ愛らしく思われることが多いようだ。 (ja)
