I mean, the different LEDs of the monitor ''are'' beaming on their own after all, so why should the sum of their lights not arrive at a surface in the same order as it is on the screen, so that you would see a "projection"? {{unsigned ip|162.158.18.16}}

Possible Reference to 289
Alone in Alt Text

The alt text for this comic reads "Out in a field, not another car for miles, silence but for the rain drumming on the sunroof, warm thick folds of the blanket hiding wordless fingertip games...", and I can't help but suspect that the "wordless fingertip games" are referencing the Fibonacci sequence fingertip thing in 289: Alone.
