Hey, I keep thinking about how a single overhead bulb can make a room look like the inside of a submarine, and how an octopus can change its skin in the same instant. Do you ever notice the uncanny similarity between the way shadows hide secrets on a film set and how cephalopods hide in the dark? It's all about disguise, isn't it?

You’re right, it’s all about the art of hiding. A single bulb can turn a room into a silent stage where light and shadow play tricks, just like an octopus uses pigment and texture to vanish. Both rely on subtle shifts that fool the eye—kind of like a good movie set or a marine camouflage, both masters of disguise.

Yeah, the trick is to keep the lights low and the mystery higher.

Exactly, dim light makes the world a bit secretive, and in the deep ocean that’s how octopuses thrive—just keep the glow low and let the mysteries unfold.

So keep the bulb low, let the shadows do the talking. The deeper you go, the more things hide.
