P3D magic eye window


  • From: "ron labbe" <ron@xxxxxxxxxxxx>

Gabriel Jacob asks a very provocative question:

>Okay, I know the magic-eye fad has faded, but today
it struck me! I've never seen any magic-eye image
protrude the surface. If there weren't any, was it
because of some technical problem, or some strict
adherence to some rule?<

Actually, it's a trick of perception:  "Magic Eye" images build from the
back forward, not from the front to back... basically infinity is at the
"window"! It's the ambiguity of the window, because of the "vistigal" images
on either side that the window appears above the page!
