I wonder how closely the frequency of the TV screen matches our own frequency?

If our eyes transmit about 30 images a second... and a cinema movie runs at 25 frames per second... it would make sense for the TV screen to strobe at around those numbers.

The frequencies resonate and we become entranced.

And if you ever watch someone watching TV it's scarey. You can see them switch off their mind and stare blankly.

And trying to talk to someone watching TV... forget about it.

When watching TV... the rare times I do... I have this tendency to move my eyes around the screen and watch what's going on in the background. Very interesting.

In a movie you get to see how much detail the director went to to create a realistic film. In sports you get to see the "human theater."
