Brilliant, I had always imagined it as a sort of fuzzy MRI, but of course that's not how it would be at all.
I'm surprised by the next part though. My visual field already presents me with infinitely nested detail, which doesn't seem to depend on the dimensionality of the input. After all there are 1D, 2D, 3D fractals (and beyond!)
