An image from the movie The Royal Tenenbaums. It is an overhead view of Dudley Heinsbergen (portrayed by Stephen Lea Sheppard) and Dr. Raleigh St. Clair (Bill Murray) conducting a neurological test on a table using wooden blocks with different shapes and colors. This image was selected as a pop culture parallel to the Teglon tile challenge in Neal Stephenson's novel Anathem.

Metekoranes had believed that the final pattern existed in the Hylaean Theoric World, and that the #Teglon could only be solved by one who had developed the power of seeing into it.

I agree the struts and bars are to blame, but I wonder if some of the interference stems from the Hylaean arrangement of tiles on the chair seat.
