Yes, it does look like a rainbow. Even if it doesn't have all the colors, to me it looked like a rainbow when I stood away from it.

No, I couldn't see a rainbow, from any distance. But I really did enjoy solving the puzzle. I like the peacock idea.

TK, you must have good eyesight. It starts to look like a rainbow for me from across the room.

No, it really doesn't. Not from any distance. Too many white spots and bleeding of colors into each other.

Well, I did say it was an experiment.
