Assuming the movement artifacts are much bigger than the blinks, I wonder
if this suggestion be adapted to this use case with something like:

1. Use `make_fixed_length_events` to make regularly-spaced events of some
duration (not sure if e.g., 1 sec or 10 sec would work better)
2. Create Epochs using a rejection threshold that throws away epochs based
on movement artifacts, but not the blink artifacts.
3. Run ICA on the Epochs.
