You really captured the floaters movement spot on! Nice one

Love it! Something we've all seen, all experienced, all marvelled at. Never seen it committed to moving images (animation?) before.

This is like an exact encapsulation of one of my memories. I remember being in elementary school and doing this.

Funny thing (when they happen to you) and you try to focus on them, they move.
It's actually parts of the sticky coating of your eyeball that detaches because of exposure to bright lightning. If you focus on something dark, they disappear instantly.

Great video, never seen anything trying to recreate this.

I used to lay in bed watching these guys dance for hours when I was sick as a kid. I've never seen this documented before... thank you.

hahhah
i have never said a thing about this!
& gee! they even have a name.
all my life i've thought there
was something wrong with my eyes
hahha

& then again i was to lazy to explain to people
what i was experiencing -
- pff. they wouldn't even know what i'll be talking about... - how would they?
if it was only my weird eyes watching this!
pff.
:P

Great stuff.
I used to play with them on long car journeys - keeping them just above the passing trees with little eye movements...

GREAT!! I was going to do exactly the same work... but I didn´t know how to do it (maybe my floaters would have been a bit darker)... anyway thats a master piece!! :O

this was so great, and I saw the recent family guy where they did a joke about floaters just after watching this, it gave me a nice laugh.

wooooooooow

Thank you! I was 17 in 1965 when floaters began to plague me. This is the best presentation of floaters that I have seen. I hope you will further develop your video to show the segmented, darker, knotted and branched floaters that I see many more of than the debris shown here. I would be afraid to attempt anything requiring precise visual accuracy like delicate surgery or marksmanship. Floaters are not always distinguishable as intraocular. They can be mistaken as objects in the field of vision.

so awesome, im glad im not the only ones seeing them. who knew animation could bring so many people together

i found this from the wikipedia page, i'd been freaking out about these for a while, but especially now as i've just got a studio that is a big white box - all i can see in there is these things dancing around. grr...

like your stuff by the way, i've seen a couple of things before. I'd wanted to get RGBXYZ for a screening a while back, but you seemed angry about getting requests for it (it would have been too long for the program anyway...) cheers, pete
