Section 1 (Interlude)

You are about to enter a new dimension in television, a dimension of [?] 3D sight, sound, and space. From what appears to be ordinary flat, abstract colour images will spring enchanting, hidden 3D images, all without the aid of special glasses

There are two types of 3D effects: floating images called "Floaters", and hidden images. Floaters are usually more obvious and involves seeing what at first appears to be just a flat image that transforms into a three dimensional scene. Hidden images, like thе one you are looking at, are fun and somеtimes tricky to see because there are usually no clues as to what you're supposed to see

While we discuss how to see these images, we will be showing you two images to practise on. The first will be an image of coins floating in space. When you view this correctly, the coins will literally drop off the screen at you! This image will be followed by a hidden image, which will reveal itself to be a deer in 3D

With a little practice and a few tips on how to do it, you will soon find these special 3D images appearing automatically. The more you practise, the more quickly the images will appear. You will be strengthening eye muscles that some of you may rarely use. As with any exercise, if you experience any discomfort, take a break and resume later

To see any of these 3D images, keep in mind that you are not trying to focus on the flat-screen itself, but instead to look deeply through it into the distance, as you might stare through a window, far, far away. Perhaps you can see a reflection of a distant object in your screen; if not, hold a candle or penlight near your face and point it at the screen. Focus on its reflection and the 3D image should become visible. Remember to let your eyes relax. The principle behind the Magic Eye is to let your eyes relax so that the image is [?] and drift apart, and two patterns overlap slightly. Be patient

In the event you find it difficult to stay focused in the third dimension once the images begin moving, try focusing on objects that appear more in the distance, as they may be easier to stay [?] than images that appear closer. Or you may find it by moving closer or farther away from your television, the images become easier to control. Still not able to see the deer? Don't be concerned. Just rewind the tape and try again. Be patient and give yourself time. If you've seen the deer, then just sit back and relax as we take you into a peaceful new third dimension

Our first show consists mostly of fairly easy-to-see hidden images, shown slowly the first time, then more rapidly to help you practise your technique. Now, just relax, and enjoy the fun!
