hah okay that was a hilarious idea.
Now this is remarkable.
I hope you, too, thought this was a picture of actual human beings. The fingers that slightly indent the flesh of a woman. Looks normal. but it should not. It is a 400 year old sculpture - marble - that is a fucking hard material.
Contemporaries used to describe the way Bernini worked as “raping marble” because he could do things to it, others were not even able to think of.
Another sculpture of his “Apollo and Daphne” is just as remarkable because he managed to sculpt leaves that were so thin they became translucent. Remember we are talking about stone here.

This will introduce you to a color you’ve probably never seen before.
True “Cyan”. Usually most people find it an ugly color, or just an ordinary light blue. BUT! Computers and TVs dilute the actual appearance of cyan and when you see it, its fucking awesome.
SO! Stare at the white dot for 2 minutes. Just as long as you can. The circle will get fuzzy and youll start to see a ring forming. Back your head up slowly and look around the edge of the circle.
