"Resting Point of Accommodation is an optical term for the visual distance eyes settle on when the viewer lets them drift out of focus. It's a physical state most prevalent in people daydreaming. Of course, close inspection of any artwork is vital, but what of our peripheral, the ability not to look too intently?"

- Bill Powers
