    Trippy!


    I've got some felt blacklight posters, with designs that are pretty similar to some of those, right behind my rig, so I can see them from my seating position. There's also a Sublime "40 oz To Freedom" felt poster up there, plus a few others. When I'm doing a serious listening session, I've usually got the lights off, and a couple black lights on, which makes the felt posters light up like crazy. That mixed with all of the LED's on my rig makes for some really nice ambiance when listening to the tunes.:)

    Interesting. A lot of them said if you stare at it you'll see things moving, but I had to keep my eyes constantly roving across the pictures to see any kind of movement. If I stared, everything just got still.

    Rapid eye movement causes a lot of the illusions. So coffee, moving your eyes around(picture roaming), and basically trying NOT to focus on a perfect spot allows it to work.
