Drawn In to the Pixels
Manage episode 423383890 series 3156855
I remember my family's first color television. I came home from school one day as a boy and there it was in our den. I sprawled out in the floor and watched the Sergeant Jack Show, featuring Dick Tracy cartoons, on Channel 42 out of Birmingham. I was enthralled. I was drawn in to the screen and would sometimes sit so close, I could see the hundreds of multicolored dots that made up the greater image. And I heard those famous words from my parents every child has heard - "Don't sit so close to the screen; you'll ruin your eyes."
I'm grateful to say, I have yet to need prescription glasses. But I am still being drawn in to the pixels. Perhaps you are as well. And if you're not, I would highly recommend it. Because there's a lot more beauty coming at you than you realize. But the only way you can catch more of it is to zoom in and slow down. A life-changing mystery awaits when you do.
