Tangential, but when I view certain dithered images in that article and on the demo page, my entire monitor drops in brightness by a bit. As soon as I scroll away, the monitor returns to normal brightness.

I wonder if this is a result of hardware or something on the software / driver side.

Probably dynamic contrast ratio by graphic driver and/or monitor that is tricked/triggered by unusual dithered patterns during scrolling.
