Visual Stim

Edit: I took a screen capture of the webpage and converted it into a looping animated gif in case anyone wants to keep it. I didn't do any size or quality optimizations so it's 23Mb. Not sure anyone cares in the age of broadband.

Downloadable

If I'm in the bathroom, I always tend to count the tiles, and to try to discern patterns in the tiles.

I do that too. I never thought of it as stimming :D I also like watching ceiling fans, and when I was a baby, I would hold things in front of my face and watch them fall to the ground.

It was a bit too much for me to take in all at once , didn't know where to look , but following just one balls journey was quite therapeutic

I've often found myself watching those screensavers on DVD players for up to half an hour at a time - the ones where an oval-shaped icon bounces around the screen and comes off the edges at varying angles.

I tended to look for shapes like animals , people , faces etc in patterned tiles , I can still vividly remember the bathroom tiles I had in my early teens because I could see a sheep in them ( it was just a random pattern though )

I love doing that! Sometimes when people are giving a presentation, the screensaver comes on the computer and I just stare at it and miss everything they say.

It's sounds like something out of a Pee Wee Herman Movie

LOL, my first reaction was, Cool! That lasted for about three quarters of one second, and then I said, "Hmm, it looks like the pattern repeats about half way across the screen -- how wide is each segment?" I adjusted the magnification on my monitor until I got two and a half copies of the pattern horizontally. Then I noticed the vertical repeat, but only about one and one tenth of that unit appears on my screen. So the individual pattern tiles are "portrait" shaped -- maybe designed for a mobile phone? Don't have one, so I can't investigate that theory.

I think that was an aspie reaction. :mrgreen:

Totally :D (and at full size it repeats more than that ... on my screen the pattern exists across a 2x4 grid ... it still fascinates me)

The music was from Pee Wee Hermans Big Adventure , it's called Breakfast Machine by Danny Elfman and you can see why the music was used if you watch the video :D

Neeeverrmind ... it tiles. On my mobile its a 4x2 grid. Guess it just depends on your screen size ... and I STILL don't hear music :)
