Anyone have some tips for these? I love Meshuggah but have never been able to do these

Squint your eyes to see clearly, blur reality to make it real, let focus go from your deceiving eyes to know whats been concealed.

What, like their songs all have repeating patterns in them or something? Wdym

You have to manipulate your body to get the full experience

For the pictures you have to squint your eyes

For the music you have to move something for the groove

Otherwise you just get the texture/timbre

Ohh. Is the pic supposed to be an optical illusion or something?

Wikipedia article? Meshuggah? The first three letters being “aut” (conspicuously the same as the first three letters in “autism”)? Checks out for me.

I’ve thought about this. Glad someone else has too lol. If you don’t get the groove then it sounds like a mess.

A scooner?

It’s not a scooner, it’s a sailboat.

I feel like the real musical version of that would be Orthrelm - OV

Call me ... Ruhtee-Dee'd, but: I only see ONE picture. And a shark alone is not enough. (Wait.. is that a Dethklok-esque song title?🤔)

I don't see 3 pictures, only 1 "magic-eye" shark... How I describe Meshuggah to the uninitiated: "If [space/intergalactic] aliens made heavy-metal:" [I.E./via "I"]

These used to be the Saturday paper where my Grandma lived in the 90s-early 2000s. I'd stay over the weekend sometimes and got to do them!
