The ad below is one of thousands that has areas of the human body marked with the letters S, E and X, in various combinations.

The closeup of the man's inner arm below shows...what? For one thing lots of detail that shouldn't be there. What kind of detail. The letters I was talking about, in scrambled combinations. They will be hard to see at first, but if you sit back in your chair a little.

Don't get up close and look at the screen. All you'll see is more dots. Sit back a bit and just stare at the arm, in general, you'll suddenly notice that what you are seeing is more than just a random collection of streaks and dots of varying colors.
