Awesome optical illusion

Stare at the center of the screen for about 15sec and then look away.
Note: If you're epileptic then you probably don't wanna do this.

Wiki entry on what produces the illusion here. The wiki entry has a link to the same stimulus, without the crappy techno soundtrack.

Re: Internet Video Collection
Interesting new PC desktop idea:

Looks nice, but I it doesn't seem very practical for searching for files.

Enriching the Desktop Metaphor with Physics, Piles and the Pen University of Toronto, Masters Thesis. (102 pages)
I don't think you would want to organize your entire computer like this but if you were working on a research paper or thesis where you are dealing with a large amount of electronic sources (academic journals not wikipedia pages) I think BumpTop would certainly help. I would've loved to have had this last December working on my senior thesis.

I wouldn't want to have to have my entire HDD organized in that manner, but that has got to be the most efficient computing desktop ever.

Re: Internet Video Collection
Man, I had a lot of fun watching this. A Star Trek, Star Wars match up.
They did good, but there were some issues.
One.
Star Destroyer was switched with a Super Star Destroyer.
Regardless, it was good and fun.
I believe the ending was fair. The Enterprise's senors would have dedected that type of surge.
Enjoy.
This means you Bleak.

I tapped out half way through it.
How do I feel about that?
I feel good, yeah I do.
And now to cleanse the pallet.:
