Cylindrical mirror illusions are a fun and interesting way of manipulating recognizable images from seemingly abstract patterns. 

The art technique, known as anamorphosis, involves drawing the supposedly abstract image on paper while looking at the cylindrical mirror rather than the drawing surface.

Perhaps anamorphism could catch on in as subliminal advertising in the commercial world of billboard or print ads. What do you think?
