Sunday morning: I am enjoying a quiet breakfast of coffee and a donut
at Starbucks. The man at the table in front of me is working on his
computer. He stops to read a book and the screensaver kicks in. It
is a slideshow of images. I watch the images sequence and try to
extract a pattern, but it is impossible. What a puzzling display!
Here are the images in the order they appeared. If anyone can spot
an organizing principle or other clue, please contact me! Good luck:
