We report a novel illusory distortion of the visual scene, which became apparent during both: (i) observer rotation inside a furnishedstationary room; and (ii) room rotation about the stationary observer.

Across a series ofexperiments, we eliminated explanations based on eye-movements, distance misperception, peripheral aliasing, diVerential motion sensitivityand adaptation. We found that these illusory scene distortions occurred only when the observer perceived (real or illusory) changesin self-tilt and maintained a stable Wxation.
