Document Summary
Fundamental fallacy a person measures a experience: what i see (experience) is what my sensory system receives, you don"t know what each person sees exactly. Format of an image: all that a camera knows is spaces (picture units) that show color values. By way of analogy: think of eyes as a radio, your eyes are tuned to a specific wavelength. Properties of light: intensity: this gives rise to your experience as brightness, units of measurement: lumens. How you measure the intensity of electromagnetic radiation. Early stages of visual information processing: in v1- in the very back of your brain, process space contra laterally. Everything in the right visual field is processed in the left side of your brain. This is why little kids like peek a boo- to them you disappeared completely and then came back. They don"t know that you are still: subtle changes can change your perception and appreciation- will give you a there difference experience.
