I’m pretty sure there’s some fuckery going on here. The image on the right has more pixels, and while there is a lot of blur between columns, there’s clearly more rows on the right.
If you look closely you can see it really does only bleed to the 2 pixels right next to it (horizontally, because that’s how the scan line travels). The dots you see don’t represent a single pixel. For example the hair, on the right in the sharp image you can see a single lone bright pixel for the hair, but on the CRT it’s 4 dots. I’m assuming 3 are probably the original pixel and the 4th is a bleed, but that’s just me guessing :P
There are countless more examples online and youtube videos about it, highly recommend ^^
I’m with you. This doesn’t seem right. I know CRTs have an anti-aliasing effect, but this seems to have increased detail. Look at his ascot, for example. It seems to have more detail than the image on the left.
I don’t see any detail I can’t find in the sharp image. Except for the off screen stuff at the very top and bottom, since CRT pixels aren’t perfectly square and who ever made this image decided to fit by width. Nonetheless there are countless more example online and videos dedicated to this on youtube. Highly recommend :)
How tf does one red pixel get blurred into like 20 wide, but only like 4 tall? That seems sus

The scan lines are horizontal
