2/3 “The Moiré effect [occurs] whenever a repetitive structure, such as a mesh, is overlaid with another such structure. The two structures need not be identical. There is evidence that the effect was noted in ancient times.”

4/3 Or was it, haha. Correction: “moiré” does not require a capital. It’s just a French word for a type of textile.
