Is the dodgy background anything to do with the puzzle?

I was wondering about that too. I kept trying to do a 'magic eye' kind of thing, or stare at it from a distance. All I see is something that may be rod looking things that sort of end in jumble. I thought it might be pipes from a pipe organ for a bit, but now I'm not so sure.

We know MC likes these type of illusions in the past, but maybe it's just nothing in this case.

Without doing the stereoscopic thing, it looks like there's a large leaf shape in the horizontal and vertical lines to the right of the black shape.

PS I have often made my eyes hurt trying to "magic eye" images out of Perplex City Cards.

I just solved this guy. Wooooooo! Proudest Perplex City moment for me! Although it was a total fluke, to be honest.

Here's a hint, but you can PM me if you want anything further. I'll try to get back in a timely fashion.

It is musical, but not in the way you think. I stumbled upon the key to the answer while researching stuff for Neography

That's SO spooky. I was working on this card yesterday and last night I had a dream someone had solved it. Woke up this morning, had a quick look and lo and behold they had.

Well done!

Creeeeepy. If your dream somehow knocked something in my brain to hit the key, then thanks!

You haven't had any dreams about PXC going full steam again, have you?
