Jens Wunderling created "at second glance" as a guerilla marketing system. It's a POV system that relies on the fact that your eyes are constantly moving. The viewer will notice something unusual about the light strip when it's first observed. Not until the viewer moves their head rapidly will the hidden message be visible.
