I don't know what I'm supposed to see, but what I see is the image of retinas in various stages of being swollen (fluid beneath), except for the top line which shows a normal retina.


I've been reading a lot about retinal diseases and comparative degrees thereof (what various clinical trials yield).

Didn't see it till I scrolled fast up and down.

At first thought it was a musical phrase as seen through an oscilloscope. Big Grin

In the Seattle bus tunnel, in one station, there is a wall with a series of lines of flashing lights. If you look at one line just right, it forms images. I can almost never see them. I can only see them when I glance quickly as I'm walking by.

Art! but the picture is big for my screen, so I had to catch it on the scroll.

Dare I say, catching it on the scroll gives an even stronger impression than reducing the size of the picture. Smiler

Amanda:

Yes, the rod and cone bar code image resembles an eye’s retina.

If the image is too large for your screen, hold down the Ctrl key and turn the mouse scroll wheel towards you to shrink the image down to a smaller size. You’ll then see the image within the rod and cone bar code.

I used to have a computer program that would print out the Mona Lisa with a calendar below it on large continuous computer paper.

Actually, my initial reaction was that it was a sound file (like Audacity) with highs, lows, and some clipping…

But I looked harder to see the art!
