#5This could be misleading. It is analogous to first projecting movie clips onto 3 different slightly distorted mirrors, then map the output of each individual mirror (the dictionary for that individual mirror). Finally, project a new movie clip onto one of the slightly distorted mirrors, use the dictionary for that mirror to reconstruct something resembling the original input to the mirror.
