Does that mean we’ll have to walk on our hands now to see things correctly, or do we just get used to it?

Sounds like what you’re looking at in Larry Niven’s version of hyperspace. According to him, it drives you crazy.

On The Waferfront was a good movie. A photon says "I coulda been a contender. I coulda been somebody."

Wondering how the ‘photos’ were generated, I found this:

Illustrations, NOT PHOTOS.

"Darks doesn't look at it. He lives it."

It's what comes of working in a GPS ley line nexus.

Like normal light, does the light in it’s altered wave forms have an infinite distance it can possibly travel (if not otherwise disrupted)? Or are the light-wave-forms ONLY “observable” at very small distances? Are they wave forms less disrupted by planetary and solar atmospehere’s than “normal” light? More questions about practical applications?
