Still working on the All Your Breath Are Belong To Us video (gradually) and actually might be getting near completion (ha ha yes); audio here: https://www.tumblr.com/pipzeroes/728731254678290432

More context in the thread: https://zeroes.ca/@pip/110069652708129811

One thing, though, is that I'd like to emulate the original video sequence at the coda, the end part of the song where it's like "BASE BASE BASE BASE...!" (except it's "BREATH BREATH BREATH" etc.)

It'd be a bunch of images quickly changing, a different one for each "BREATH" (16 images in under 4 seconds).

The thing is, though, that for some people quickly flashing images can have consequences (photosensitive epilepsy, nausea, migraine etc.)

This is the original sequence https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qItugh-fFgg&t=231s (video queued to that point; warning, quickly changing images, in case viewing stuff like that is an issue for you- and also, uh, it might be a bit loud, so, warning if you are on headphones).

I know that the risk of photosensitive epilepsy is increased based on the frequency of the flash (that is, how quickly the light is flashing), the brightness, and the contrast with background lighting...

So, I am thinking:

- Instead of having the images flash in their order of appearance, sorting them so it only goes light-light-light-dark-dark-dark instead of light-dark-light-dark-light-light to help reduce the risk.

- And if it does reduce the risk but there could still be risk, how I would word a note beforehand to be concise and effective...

Any other thoughts from those with experience mitigating these kinds of risks would be appreciated; thanks.
