The color patterns you are seeing are known as moiré fringes. The image posted here is not a screen-shot; it was created using a digital camera to photograph a computer screen.

 

Moiré fringes occur when the photo sensor (a dot matrix array) focuses without alignment on a computer screen (another dot matrix array), any misalignment in the matrixes will cause interference patterns.  A similar moiré effect (with less color) is noted in photos of near-focus objects imaged through a (window) screen. 

 

The moiré fringe artifacts disappear at zero degrees (alignment) and at multiples of 30-degree angle rotations. This is easily observed by rotating the digital camera while viewing the image in the video monitor.
