Document Summary
For the most part, these are not under our conscious control. Shape, color, size, etc, are attributes computed by the brain (ex. Imaginary square) starting with pattern of light of retina (the brain has to direct access to what the world actually looks like) Every shape and color you perceived are something your brain has to compute to create that representation which is basis of your perception right now. What are the rules or mechanism that the brain is using in order to make perceptual interpretation starting with the two images in retina and constructing it to be 3d image: ex. Of any complex system: a black box, the response is various input is going to tell us how it is going to program. Input-output relations-> we feed it various combination of inputs then observe how it responses to those inputs. This is what we mean when we say information processing .
