Q

Talk to me about the shadows of blood vessels as being stabilized retinal images.

Q

With the muller-lyer illusion, the weird house; which constancy do we use to help us out?

A

Size constancy to try to align the off-scaling.

Due to ambiguous information, we are tricked and it doesn’t work.

Q

What are some properties of figure ground segregation?

A
  • The figure is More memorable
  • Figure is seen as in front of the ground
  • The ground is seen as unformed material
  • Separating contour belongs to the figure(If pic has two things in it; you can’t see both at the same time; contours gotta belong to somebody).
