Shinzen continues with the metaphor of the CRT monitor, looking at white on the surface with a magnifying glass, and noticing how white dissolves and red, green, and blue arises. He shares the "skilled butcher chopping up a cow metaphor", and claims that looking close enough at feel, image, and talk will result in the "self as thing" going away, which can be verified as a research project because it's perceptual, as opposed to just conceptual. Penetrating awareness deeper into feel, image, and talk results in the perception of vibrating space, or void. Ultimately the "focusing in" technique harkens back to the early Buddhist notion of seeing through and penetrating the strands of "self", and seeing their empty, impermanent nature.
