Explanation: Sure, you can see the 2D rectangle of colors, but can you see deeper? Counting color patches in the featured image, you might estimate that the most information that this 2D digital image can hold is about 60 (horizontal) x 50(vertical) x 256 (possible colors) = 768,000 bits. However, the yet-unproven Holographic Principle states that, counter-intuitively, the information in a 2D panel can include all of the information in a 3D room that can be enclosed by the panel. The principle derives from the idea that the Planck length, the length scale where quantum mechanics begins to dominate classical gravity, is one side of an area that can hold only about one bit of information. The limit was first postulated by physicist Gerard 't Hooft in 1993. It can arise from generalizations from seemingly distant speculation that the information held by a black hole is determined not by its enclosed volume but by the surface area of its event horizon. The term "holographic" arises from a hologram analogy where three-dimension images are created by projecting light through a flat screen. Beware, some people staring at the featured image may not think it encodes just 768,000 bits -- nor even 2563,000 bit permutations -- rather they might claim it encodes a three-dimensional teapot.
Next NASA will put up an ink blot, telling the white observers they’re racist if they can’t decipher it...
Could make those things work years ago, lost the knack.
Amazing how that works. The teapot is of THE SAME PATTERN as the background and that makes it harder to see, but it can be seen.
Note to self: YOU NEED NEW GLASSES. Eyestrain city……..😖
I could never see the hidden image in those things. I get how it can “lift out” when it all comes together. But however long or how I stare at it, I can’t see it.
Thanks
I used my computer and followed your lead. Awesome effect and worth the few minutes it took. Thanks.
Once or twice, years ago, I was able to focus "beyond" these pictures and see the thing described. But that was before my old eyes stopped being able to focus properly.
These days, the only way I can see something 3D is to cross my eyes a little bit and focus "before" the picture (like this one). I get the 3D image, but it's inverted, in other words this teapot appears as a hollow space in the shape of a teapot, carved deep into a background of colors.
It's even weirder that way than the "right" way.
It’s amazing how that information is buried in all that seeming noise, huh?
I see penguins....................
Where’s Waldo,,?
A little teapot... cute.
It’s easier to see if you start at the bottom of the screen too - - with the same focus plan you’re using.
