go on, give us a wave of your mandibles!
(actually, i'm now getting visions of an army of robot loopzs, intent of overrunning the planet, just like attack of the clones, and this and the memory of that movie is distressing me!)

Fascinating....

Very cryptic Dave.
On the right 'tracks'
Well, it'd be rude to give the game away Mems...

Yes it is. There are variuos tricks, like going cross-eyed, but I try to focus at an imaginary spot behind the image. There's definitely a knack to it, but once you've done it a couple of times, it gets easy.

Its hard work on a monitor screen but try and blur the image for a while and then relax your eyes.

I'm a big fan of optical illussions. Anything Dali or Escher like and I'm there.
Loopz, this one has the same effect on me as your avatar.

Am I the only one who absolutely loves the video tam posted?
Being a pianist, I think it has to be pretty damn hard to play scales that fast in that position (believe me, in a normal position I can play
fast) and IMHO the music is good too. Judging by the melodies, I'd guess it's from one of the countries between Turkey and Russia (as in Azerbaijan or Armenia or some place similar), and I admit always having a thing for stuff like that.
& for anyone interested in optical illusions, I think it's time to post this site again:

This thing is cool too:

i always thought loopz' avatar was some sort of alien with a really big eye.
when i took another look i saw it was not an eye but headphones..
i liked the alien better tho..
