The Parallel Method: Using a Tube
平行法は遠くの方を見る目を維持しつつ、近くを見る方法だ。疲れたときのボーッとしたアノ目もそうだ。
The parallel method is a means of viewing something nearby while keeping your eyes on something farther away. It is similar to what happens with your eyes when they are dazed and/or tired.
1. 筒を2つ用意する
1. Provide Yourself 2 Tubes
まず、不要なラップやアルミホイルの芯になっている筒を2つ用意しよう。そして筒を両目にピッタリあてて画面を直接見てみよう。
First, provide yourself 2 tubes, which can be the unneeded cores of plastic wrap or aluminum foil. Then, put the tubes against both your eyes and look directly at the two previous pictures.
家族の人の許可を得てから使おう
Use the tubes after getting your family’s permission.
2. 定位置を探す
2. Find a Fixed Position
次に右目だけで見たときは筒の中央に右の画面が、左目だけで見たときは筒の中央に左の画面がくる位置を探す。
ちなみに、編集部では筒を少し内側に入れたほうが見やすいという意見が多かったぞ。
Next, seek out the position where the left picture appears in the center of the left tube when viewing with just your left eye and where the right picture appears in the center of the right tube when viewing with just your right eye.
By the way, many of those in the editorial department were of the view that it’s easier to see if you position the tubes toward the inside a little.

Peeking at the Pictures
片目でのぞいて真ん中
に画面が来る位置を!
Position each where the picture comes into the middle when peeking with one eye!
筒を少し内側にしたほうがいいらしい
It seems to be better to have the tubes a little to the inside.
3. 両目で見る
3. Look with Both Eyes
そして両目で遠くを見る感じで画面を見る。そして、自分の体ごと筒と画面の距離を上下させ円が1つになる場所を見つける。そこでさらに遠くを見つめる目をしてみると画面が立体に見えてくるぞ。
道具を使った方法を紹介したが、なくても大丈夫。「遠くを見る目」だけでOKだ。ちなみに、同じものを平行法と交差法の両方で見てみると凹凸が逆になって見えるぞ。
Next, look at the pictures with both eyes and with the sense of viewing something farther away. Then, find the place where the two circles become one by increasing or decreasing the distance between the pictures and the tubes and yourself. Now, when you try to look at something farther away, you will see a picture in three dimensions!
We’ve introduced this method using tools, but these are not necessary. It will work just for “eyes that are looking farther away.” By the way, if you look at the same thing with both the parallel and the intersection (crossover) methods, the unevenness will look reversed.
上下させて立体に見える場所を探す
Find the place where it looks three-dimensional by moving toward or away.
目を使った遊び
A Game Using Your Eyes
まず、ラップやアルミホイルの筒を1つ用意しよう。このとき、家の人に尋ねてからにしようね。勝手に使うと怒られてしまうぞ。
用意できたら筒を手のひらの右横に置こう。そして、右目で筒をのぞきながら、両目でボーッと遠くのほうを見てみよう。すると、手のひらの中心に穴が開いたようにみえるぞ。小さいころのこの遊びも平行法を応用した遊びの一つなのだ。
First, you need to provide yourself one tube from either plastic wrap or aluminum foil. At this time, ask those in the household if it’s okay. If you use one without permission, some may get angry.
Once you’re ready, put the tube next to the palm of your hand. Then, while looking through the tube with your right eye, try looking at something farther away with both eyes, as if with dazed or tired eyes. You should then see what looks like an open hole in the center of your palm! This little game is one of the games where the parallel method is applied.
筒の先のほうに手のひらを置こう
Place your palm against near the end of the tube.
