In Response To: YOU CAN'T BELIEVE THE LOGO THEY CHOSE FOR THE LONDON OLYMPICS! *PIC* (Rayelan)

All I want NOW, is for someone to tell me that this WASN'T planned!!
I hope our GREAT symbolic analysts will take a look at what I have found and start analyzing it so I know what the "symbolists" who designed this logo have in mind for us!!

LONDON OLYMPIC LOGO
When I got the first email stating that the logo spelled ZION, I chuckled... when I got the second one, I said "Hmmmm"... maybe I should take a look!! I took a look and sure enough ZION was there!!

LONDON OLYMPIC LOGO SPELLS ZION

But THEN I started getting emails that said there the logo looked like a stylized Swastika!! I dismissed that immediately... but the more time went by, the more I thought about it... So printed out the original logo... cut it up... laid it out in pieces... and guess what... I saw the stylized logo too... I added NO pieces... I did NOT use the large part that had the Olympic circles on it, I cut around the circles so I could put the stylized 3-legged Swastika in the middle circle. I did NOT use the "dot".

London 2012 logo footage withdrawn amid epilepsy fears

Wed Jun 6, 6:46 AM ET

Animated footage promoting the logo for the 2012 London Olympic Games was removed from the organizers' Web site on Tuesday amid concern it could trigger epileptic fits.

The video clip shows a diver plunging into a pool as part of a campaign to promote the jagged Olympic logo, a graffiti-like blow-up of the number 2012 in a range of colors including hot pink and electric blue.

A London 2012 spokeswoman said the concerns surrounded a four-second piece of animation shown at the logo's launch on Monday and recorded by broadcasters.

Emphasizing that it was not the logo itself which was the focus of health worries, she said: "This concerns a short piece of animation which we used as part of the logo launch event and not the actual logo."

"It was a diver diving into a pool which had multi-color ripple effects," the spokeswoman said.

Critics of the emblem have described it as "hideous," while organizers called it powerful and modern.

The clip's removal follows comments by Professor Graham Harding, an expert in clinical neuro-physiology who developed a test used to measure photo-sensitivity levels in animated TV material.

"The logo should not be shown on TV at all at the moment," Harding told the BBC. "It fails Harding FPA machine test which is the machine the television industry uses to test images."

He said the footage did not comply with regulatory guidelines.

Charity Epilepsy Action noted there had been reports that people had had seizures while watching the animated footage.

The BBC reported on its Web site that a listener had rung its London radio station to say he and his girlfriend had suffered seizures while watching it.
