Motion is like seeing a bunch of pictures in sequence at 24 FPS. We call these movies. It gives the appearance of something moving to the observer, despite no movement existing between frames.
Funny thing is that in movies we also see sequences of pixels called pictures, that give appearance of solid objects to the observer despite nothing existing between those pixels to hold them together.
