'Drew' a little more inspiration from liverpole's Cyclical japh.
There are two ways your eyes can interpret what you're seeing when you run this - it will either appear to be scrolling, or rotating. I've tried to provide enough visual cues to help you see the latter. If, try as you might you're still only able to see it as scrolling, try to just concentrate on the first line. Windows users might need to (save the code above as "dna.pl" and) use the following invocation:
Most of the obfuscations of this nature ($somevar=q"compactedOrWhitespacedCode";s/\s+//;eval;) can generally be picked apart with something like:
I was a little surprised to find out I couldn't quite do that with this one due to a last minute formatting change (namely, that I didn't have enough code to complete the last line in the picture!). How to modify the above command line to see the meat of the code is left as an exercise for the reader. Update: Hah, I noticed my unintentional pun in the first sentence :-D --chargrill
