The pattern didn't work on me, but maybe because I only watched a couple of cycles on my phone.

Has anyone had the experience where if you try to watch an anthill (or just many ants in one place), your vision gets out of focus after a couple of seconds? And you can't just re-focus, even after turning away from the ants. It takes a while until you are able to focus again.

It's very relaxing. I'm wondering if this is the same effect they are after with the animation.
