All knowledge is on form perception and object recognition, without recognition, you cannot bring your knowledge onto the world. Object recognition important in learning combining new information with previous information, categorization.

Jerome bruner voiced similar claims and coined beyond the information given to describe some ways that perception of stimulus differs from the stimulus itself. The necker cube: ambiguous figure b/c there is more than 1 way to see it. Figure/ground organization: determination of what is the figure and what is he ground.
