if you have some anaglyph ('red/green') glasses at hand, you can watch this demo of 'continuous flash suppression' that promises the experience of perceptual suppression of one eye that lasts for several seconds:

It's a demo from a scientific study that just came out a couple of months ago:
Nature Neuroscience (2005) 8, 1096-1101

check it out.

PS: If you need a pair of anaglyph goggles, you can get one for free at:

an excerpt from Christof Koch's interesting webpage:

# In the fall of 2005 the Philosophical Transactions of the Royal Society of London published a paper, entitled What is the Function of the Claustrum by Francis Crick and Christof Koch. The function of this mysterious neuronal structure, hidden beneath the inner surface of the neocortex, occupied his thoughts in the last months of his life. Indeed, he was dictating corrections to this manuscript on July 28. 2004, the day he died. This is a photograph taken by Kent Schnoeker of the Salk Institute of Francis's table the next day, covered with drafts of the claustrum manuscript and related papers:
