Thanks for that John. Not so much for the ear wiggling but definitely for YouTube deciding I needed to hear Fidelity by Regina Spektor again - excellent5.4 this morning.
Ancestry states that I am likely to be able to wiggle my ears no EMail but it’s in my list of traits with a new label.
That sounds fun, producing travel clips....Good morning everyone on an out of kilter start to bin day here in the dark and dangerous north.
Out of kilter this morning as I got up early, have already consumed a mug of tea and am now on koffy. This does not aligned with my morning routine. I have taken my lung inhalers, forgot to stab my finger and I usually line up my pills before koffy - oh well, I shall use it as a test of mental agility - no, really!
One of my sisters is a teacher in the USA . She is producing a short film looking at daily travel in different parts the world. So today I will be staring in two short clips; a walk into town and then catching a bus. I am taking a train on Saturday so that will be another one.
Art bit - a splash of red.
Can you enjoy your day? Between virtue and vice lies the middle ground of indifference - not giving any ocurance more power or preference than is appropriate. Unless of course it’s koffy, but then I have already had mine.
Please tell me you're doing this in the voice style of Little Britain.... < pray >One of my sisters is a teacher in the USA .

What a fascinating journey you're on gennepher.Fbg 6.8
I met my friend D yesterday and she went to get the meal..
And at that point of time, I noticed something different with my eyes but I was not sure quite what.
We had just come in to the cafe from very bright sunlight, and I assumed that might be something to do with it.
.It seemed like my eyes had reversed, in colour on what I was seeing.
My friend was in a long queue so I have time to do a bit of investigating. The guy on the next table thought I was winking at him and he kept glaring at me...
What I had noticed was that my new cataract eye definitely had a very warm tint to the cool colours it had been seeing, and my non operated eye was now seeing everything in blue and cool tones. So I go on to ChatGPT to see if it could find some answers for me.
"However, if your perception has flipped this morning, a few things could be influencing it:
Lighting Conditions – Even though you're inside, sunlight reflecting off surfaces (like walls, furniture, or floors) can shift the color balance. The way light enters each eye could be affecting your perception at different angles.
Brain Adjustment – Your brain is still adapting to the difference between the two eyes. Sometimes, when comparing them separately, the brain momentarily "reverses" how it processes colors as it tries to balance the input from each eye.
Pupil Size Differences – Your operated eye might still be adjusting in terms of pupil response, especially if you've been using dilating or anti-inflammatory drops. This could alter how much light enters and how color is perceived."
All 3 of the above were absolutely true, And so I could relax again, because I was wondering if something was seriously wrong.
At that point my friend said your cataract eye pupil is very very big. I had no idea it was, and so I said well. it's chances are it's to let the light in to help the eye to heal. My large pupil seem to disturb her quite a lot.
When I got home I took a photograph of my eyes and I could see them. And I could see what she meant. So my creative today is my large pupil and my small pupil.
I would not have known until she told me about this.
I was very, very tired, and when I got home I was more tired than usual. But ChatGPT told me one more thing.
"The brain undergoes a process called neuroadaptation to adjust to these changes in visual input. This adaptation involves the brain recalibrating its interpretation of visual signals to harmonize the input from both eyes. Research indicates that this adjustment period can vary among individuals, with some experiencing changes in color perception lasting for months post-surgery......
Your previous experience with a cochlear implant highlights the brain’s remarkable capacity for neuroplasticity—the ability to reorganize itself by forming new neural connections in response to sensory changes. Just as your auditory pathways adapted to new stimuli, your visual system is now adjusting to the altered input from your eyes. This process can temporarily affect activities that rely on visual and creative pathways, potentially leading to increased fatigue as your brain works to integrate the new visual information.
To support this neuroadaptation process, consider engaging in activities that stimulate visual processing, such as observing various colors and contrasts in different lighting conditions. Allow yourself ample rest to mitigate fatigue, as your brain requires energy to adapt to these changes."
So that's why I was literally brain dead last night...
The left eye has now come back to warm tints, and the new cataract guy is giving me cool tints... So I'm back to normal!!!
Enjoy your Thursday... I am now following the advice of rest, so I am going to have a nap now...

Fascinating piece about colour perception. I was lost at warm tints and cool tints since I just know colours I like and those I don't. I had no idea some could be warm and some cool. I'll process that this afternoon. Glad you were reassured but hug for the tiredness.Fbg 6.8

Thank you @gennepherA beautiful Payne's Grey painting @dunelm
Thank you @gennepher - the splash of red was only for the little flute player
I have been practicing my best Tom Baker, “welcome to my walk, we are in England, where gravity, oxygen and bacon were invented and words are spelled correctly”.Please tell me you're doing this in the voice style of Little Britain.... < pray >
Absolutely fascinating. Your brain is working terribly hard trying to sort things out.Fbg 6.8
