I think the word you're looking for is "wave" instead of "swim." What you're seeing is called the Moiré effect, and is occurs when your antialiasing is set too low, or is off.









New Tower 1368'0" to parapet. Old Tower: 1362'0" to Parapet, 1368'7" to roof peak, which rounds out to the tower actually being 1,369 feet tall. Interesting.
