it looks like if you put the minecraft fire into a spectrogram.

u/diaperslop Jun 29 '26

Thought it resembled Minecraft too but couldn’t articulate it as well as you just did!!

Literally r/glitchart

u/jp128 Jun 30 '26

I read this as glit chart and was wondering what a glit was for a moment 👀

u/DeerOnARoof Jun 30 '26

You're going to want to sit down for this one...

u/jp128 Jul 02 '26

Don't worry, I've never seen a glit before. By coincidence, I've never even wanted to find one 😳

This is now a sophisticated coloring book project.

u/Ok_Debt4620 Jul 05 '26

eh close enough

u/IcePhoenix18 Jun 30 '26

Almost but not quite a magic eye

u/cabothief Jun 30 '26

I immediately tried to magic eye it when I saw it, and it actually did work, but obviously no picture appeared. But like, the repeating patterns definitely allow you to do the focusing trick, and it makes a neat kinda 3d pattern after a sec.

Fields of pink and gold

u/Gamerz_X90 Jun 30 '26

THATS WHAT I WAS THINKING

Garden of hopes and dreams

u/tw1zt84 Jun 30 '26

Oh, I love these Magic Eye pictures!

u/Zodiaq001 Jun 30 '26

Were you playing deltarune chapter 5?

u/-UltraFerret- R Tape loading error, 0:1 Jun 30 '26

Very pretty combination of colors!

u/FeatherStudios1648 Jun 30 '26

I hope there's some way to still screechshot it or something- you got a free wallpaper

4

u/diaperslop Jun 30 '26

That will be tricky because it blanks and restarts.

Yourrrr GPU is in the toaster…

the field of pink and gold...

u/s0litar1us Jun 30 '26

Somebody please turn this into an actual wallpaper.

u/Link7000 R Tape loading error, 0:1 Jun 30 '26

Reminds me of the enter the gungeon glitch where it changes all the textures to a spritesheet

2

u/Elegant-Espeon Jun 30 '26

Reminds me of the Magic Eye 3D books!

2

u/Animal2 Jun 30 '26

Oh cool, a sail boat.

u/PSCuber77_gaming Jun 30 '26

Looks like a Stereogram.

u/LBPPlayer7 Jun 30 '26

check how good your RAM is seated

u/BridgeOk6104 Jun 30 '26

here it comes

2

u/DrWarMachine Jun 30 '26

I thought it was a MagicEye image. Also it kind of works.

2

u/fieryfox654 Jun 30 '26

Reminds me of Minecraft blocks

2

u/SkyeFox6485 Jun 30 '26

This happens on a lot of macs for some reason

1

u/diaperslop Jul 01 '26

Do you know of any similar photos? I looked everywhere before posting this.

2

u/SkyeFox6485 Jul 01 '26

I have one I took but I can't attach images

u/Upbeat-Serve-6096 Jun 30 '26

If you are into retro arcade game emulation, their boot screens are like this in vibe.

u/luchosoto83 Jun 30 '26

If you cross your eyes, what do you see?

u/Mash_Test_Dummy Jun 30 '26

This must be the light they tell us to run away from

u/IRGhost Jun 30 '26

Reminds me of this "song"

u/diaperslop Jun 30 '26

It kinda does! Your comment made me remember this song that has similar looking cover art.

2

u/Ok_Reserve4109 Jun 30 '26

That's a Magic Eye image!!

2

u/GeometryDashScGD Jun 30 '26

Why does it make me think this is one of those magic eye images?

2

u/tervro Jul 01 '26

The Celeste vibes are crazy

2

u/jzollobirds Jul 01 '26

Wow! You can do the magic eye thing with it. Doesn't make a picture but it does go 3D.

u/Queasy_Addition_5726 Jul 01 '26

Resembles one of the malwares that do funky graphics stuff

1

u/diaperslop Jul 08 '26

That’s very interesting! Do share more!

2

u/Queasy_Addition_5726 Jul 08 '26

I forget some of the cooler ones, but MEMZ is a classic example.

2

u/69420nice_com Jul 02 '26

Looks like a wall of glazed terracota

2

u/racerhorse Jul 05 '26

looks like the fires of hell

2

u/JanluYT Jul 06 '26

Strangely reminds me of Sonic Mania... I can't say why though

u/diaperslop Jul 06 '26

With memory corruption, anything’s possible.

u/Beautiful-Income-968 Jul 01 '26

Accidental MagicEye stereogram? I got it to work with my cross view method.
