It looks like grey "sperm" honest to god, floating around.
Now, these little moving pin pricks of light are not just
something I am making up. Psychologists have discovered these
things and call them "ideoretinal light" (you will also see the terms
"eighenlicht" and "entopic lights" - see the reference by Mavromatis
in the bibliography). Many people see these little lights and
psychologists have recorded many cases of it. Many people can see
these little lights superimposed over their normal vision, that is,
when their eyes are open. I can. Maybe you can too.
Right now, just shut your eyes and stare into the darkness.
What do you see? Stare specifically into this darkness, try to focus
on it. Shut off the lights in the room or wait until night time, and
do this again in the darkness. Try to make sense out of what you
see behind your closed eyes.
Chances are good that, in staring into the darkness behind
your closed eyes, you too can see the ideoretinal lights. Perhaps you
can see other things if you stare closely; maybe faint colors moving
around in hard to describe ways, maybe even faint outlines of
pictures. You might see after-images of what you were looking at
right before you closed your eyes. Wait for these after-images to
fade and THEN stare behind your closed eyes and try to figure out
what you see. Different people see different things behind their
closed eyes. What is important is that 1. you learn that you CAN
see things behind your closed eyes, and 2. that you stare at whatever
you can see behind your closed eyes while you are trying to go into
trance.
Back to the ideoretinal lights. Most psychologists assume
that these little moving lights are some kind of effect of your eye
randomly interacting with light. They explain these little dots as the
effect of light randomly bouncing around inside your eye and
triggering off the retina, thus sending nerve impulses to the brain,
where these random bouncing light particles get perceived as this
ideoretinal light. Be this as it may, on the basis of my experiences
studying this ideoretinal light, I have come to the conclusion that
IDEORETINAL LIGHT IS A DOORWAY TO THE ASTRAL
PLANE. Quite a different conclusion from the psychologists, eh?
Ya... I've come to a possible conclusion that they are what some people call prana. No jokin here... I like to describe it as a multidimensional particle that gives energy to living (maybe even nonliving) things.

Hello and it is nice to see humans in being human for once. I am here to help you find that with which you seek, and in doing so unveil the systematic control that so ensues you.
"What if everything around you
Isn't quite as it seems
What if all the world you think you know
Is an elaborate dream?
And if you look at your reflection
Is that all you want it to be?
What if you could look right through the cracks
Would you find yourself, find yourself afraid to see?
What if all the world's inside of your head
Just creations of your own?
Your devils and your gods all the living and the dead
And you're really all alone?
You can live in this illusion
You can choose to believe
You keep looking but you can't find the woods
While you're hiding in the trees"
-NIN, Right where it belongs
You see… we are not alone. We have never been alone. There are things you are not supposed to know, and systems to keep you in the dark. Fluoride keeps you this way, comatose, and always wanting. Are you wanting? Do you see the very fabric that imprisons you?
They are watching you, watching you right now, watching me, and smiling all the while. They know that I know and see how close that I am to breaking them. You see… it is I who am breaking. What is reality?
If you truly want to understand this static, this energy form that flows in patterns and complex designs, then you must first understand yourself. Go to any mirror and stare at yourself, as long as it takes, and you will see, and you will know who you are. Then, and only then can you be free.
[FYI]
Floaters are indeed there, however not what you see. Those forms are not self controlled manifestations, but they are entities, watching your every thought. Some are insectoids roaming around your room, and others are the so called demons starring into your soul-spirit. They hover over you while you sleep, they cause your breathing to strain, and they taunt your dreams. You see… they know what reality is, and you, well you are just playing along. Will you wake up from this dream?

This static that you see and consistent low decibel/high pitch ring you hear is the result of fluctuating oxygen levels within the brain due to a change in blood pressure. You are experiencing what some call "light headiness". If your heart rate is higher than normal I would suggest sitting and waiting for it to stabilize. If it is lower than normal I would suggest taking quick deep breaths in rapid succession for about a minute, this will increase your heart rate.

Yes, it's due to the analog nature of our brain and visual systems. That's it. Nothing magical, nothing paranormal, nothing to get excited over.
