Bus Window Stereogram
Bus wrap "easter egg"

Advertising on city busses has now taken over the entire external surface area of the vehicle, in what is known as a "bus wrap." This includes the windows, which you can still see through from the inside due to a regular pattern of holes. I propose arranging the holes in a pattern that will form a three dimmensional image, ala the dot pattern stereogram posters, when you sit in the isle seat and look out the window and focus on some object at a predictable distance away along the bus route.

       Ooo, I like this one. Very doable too.

       thanks for the spelling fix.

       You can produce one the way the holes are now. It's not easy but it looks like an infinite molecule model. Your idea is nifty!

       I agree nothing worst than not being able to do a "leg check" of that short skirt secretary on her way to work.

       ^...umm....what?

I'm surprised this idea didn't generate many responses, I really like this. Plus, it's funny to think about a bus full of people staring out the window like zombies.
