Subliminal Peripheral Vision
Wow. I don't know if this guy is onto something or if he's a wacko. His basic premise is that people concentrating intently on long-term tasks can be driven to psychotic episodes by repetitious movement in their peripheral vision.
He implies that human factors researchers discovered this in the modern office environment, and invented the cubicle to solve the problem. Then promptly forgot to pass this knowledge on to anyone else.
His website uses this to explain a plethora of phenomena. Mysterious disapperances, computer-game related suicide / homicide, the abandonment of Chaco canyon, the Hill's interupted journey and air crashes are examples.
