A Compelling Image

Not as compelling as a Babesleaga image, perhaps.

I saw this at Phys.org, which worded the credit thus: “Credit: Image is provided by the Anthro Illustrated project (anthroillustrated.com).”

But what’s going on in the picture? It’s not anthro; it’s statistics.

The student has an extremely uncomfortable place to sit.

The desktop does not seem to extend past the desk on the closest corner, but it does at the other two corners.

The student’s feet seem large, but we’ll let that go.

The teacher has a device pointing at her — a light source, a projector, a camera, a microphone? Let’s let that go, too; it doesn’t seem to bother her.

She also has a weird plant sculpture. Does everyone have these? Are we supposed to recognize it? Feel empathy with her? Feel sympathy? Why is this in the picture?

One-on-one classes? What kind of school is this?

What is this teacher’s obsession with horizontal stripes?

Where is the light on the floor coming from?

Is this Starfleet Academy?
