I seem to have terrible trouble seeing these things for some reason. No scanner access for me unfortunately but if you buy the magazine, there are four different images and you only get two so I had to look through them until I found the Orb one. Its about the size of a full magazine page. Text as follows: "EXPAND YOUR MIND - the dot matrix grid you are viewing is a seemingly random dot array. In order to see the hidden image within it try defocussing your eyes and gazing straight through the image to a distant point. Relax and continue focussing at a point beyond the plane of the poster. As you brain tries to create order from chaos you reach an alpha state at which yoour brain is open to learning. It is at this point that your 'third eye' will interpret the patterns and digitised depth cues and suddenly you will see an image projected by your own creative imagination! This all takes place in area 39 - the pool of creativity - a small area of the brain the size of a postage stamp. As you view the print you are literally increasing the strangth and size of the neurons, dendrites and glial bridges at the dream centre of the brain!" :flu'id (floo'-)
