3. Oddly enough
this doesn't work for me.

There's another one that's been posted here that is some kind of circles, and that one moves for me. Wish I knew why this one doesn't.

5. How's It Work?
Can someone explain, in simple terms, how the effect works? Is it a matter of the eye unable to focus on certain shapes concurrently or something like that?

10. Reminds me of the 60's
Filmore West in San Francisco, Janis with Big Brother and the Holding Company, amoebas crawling on the walls.

12. Those were Paisleys
At least that's what I kept seeing. Where did you live? We probably attended many of the same concerts. Avalon , Speedway meadows, Fillmore, Fillmore west. My first real apartment was about two blocks from Fillmore West which is why I don't care if I ever see another rock concert again. In fact, I think the last concert I ever went to was Altamont. Truly the end of an era.

You gotta sweep your eyes from side to side, otherwise it won't work.
