It appears that the caffeine in the two cans of Mountain Dew that you just
drunk has affected your brain!  ;) ;) ;) 

I have hard time visualizing what you did and how you saw hyper-, hypo-,
ortho or peudo from two cans of Mounteain Dew.

By rotating you are compressing one image.  That should make the scene
acquire deph in a linear fashion as if it was tilted.  How can you call that
hyper-, ortho-, hypo-?

I am at a loss here... I am tempted to go to the vending machine and get
two cans of pop.  $1 for research.  It is worth it!

Your posing reminds me an earlier one regarding freeviewing the computer
keyboard but I was talking about solid (not flat) objects.
