In The Puzzle of Experience, J. J. Valberg argues that, concerning the content of our visual experience, there is contention between the answer derived from reasoning and that found when 'open to experience '. The former leads to the conviction that a physical object can never be “the object of experience,” while with the latter “all we find is the world” (18). After first clarifying what is meant by 'object of experience ', the 'problematic reasoning ' will then be detailed. Afterwards, it will be explained how being 'open to experience ' opposes the reasoning, as well as why the resulting “puzzle” cannot be easily resolved. Lastly, a defence of Valberg 's argument will be offered on the grounds that it relevantly captures how we understand our visual

5c. This scenario is an example of a negative feedback, because you put the dog outside and said "no bad dog" and that is stimulus.

The passage first talks about the proper conditions needed to experience the effects and phenomenons described. The author then goes on to briefly explain some malfunctions in our brains and says, “Those are ‘false positives,’ reports that there is light when there isn’t. We see light when we shouldn’t and we fail to see light when, by the

The painting that I chose to analyze was William Maw Egley’s Omnibus Life in London (1859). Painted on an oil medium, it depicts a scene of an omnibus, a horse-drawn carriage that acted as public transportation, pulled over at a certain stop along a particular route (Tate). In the painting, it features a crowded bus as more people attempt to board it. There are various people from every type of social class, which will be examined during the contextual analysis section to interpret the meaning historically. Also, this paper will analyze the formal structure of the painting through color, lines, space and mass, and composition. And furthermore, recognize the symbolism documented in the painting for iconographic analysis. In doing so, this will highlight and comment on important characteristics of Omnibus Life in London as it yields new information regarding the emerging shift in social inequality.

In his novel The Chosen Chaim Potok uses vision as a motif to show the reader that someone’s perception of things can change. In the novel, vision symbolizes the ability to see the world. The importance of perception is shown throughout the book. One of the main examples of this is after Reuven leaves the hospital. He says that “everything looks different”, but he doesn't mean this literally. Reuven found a new appreciation of his health since he could have gone blind. Another example of perception change from the novel is when Reuven realizes Danny isn't how he appeared to be. During the story, Mr. Malter says “Things are always as they seem to be, Reuven?”. He says this because Reuven told him that it seemed like Danny hit him deliberately.

In the Loge, by Mary Cassatt is a very interesting piece of artwork. The artwork depicts what appears to be a woman, viewing a play or some kind of entertainment inside of a theater. The woman’s gaze is set on whatever the entertainment in front of her is. However, the man across the theater is looking directly at the woman, yet he appears to be attending the show with a woman himself. This painting appears to be set sometime in the past, the outfits the people are wearing appear to be very outdated. This painting is obviously a representational artwork, because it clearly depicts an event that could have actually occurred. There is no odd parts or unusual events occurring in the painting that could make it an abstract piece of art.

Edward Hirsch’s poem “Fast Break” has a lot of good use of sensory details, figurative language, and sound devices. This poem is about the fast break in basketball when players quickly bring the ball the other way at an unprepared defense. The subject of basketball is untraditional. “Fast Break” is the best poem ever.

Bluemoon Acres has posted an image on their website of a pair of hands each full of rural and urban soil. While scrolling through Google, this picture has the ability to catch the eyes of those who are involved in programs such as the National FFA Organization and 4-H, most members can recognize the difference between the two types of soil. Not only is the focal point eye catching the color scheme could be considered vibrant and contrasting which may create interest in the image. The appealing colors and relatable subject constructs an attention-getting ethos and pathos argument. However, the lack of statistics and other numbers show a lack of a logos argument within this image.

The image of this milkmaid is an intricate symbol of her sexual availability1,2 (13) perceptible by several elements throughout the image. Milkmaid is an oil on canvas, Dutch painting done by Johannes Vermeer in 1657 and finished in 1658. It is a realism modeling painting of a woman, who is a milkmaid, standing around a still life image of a table of food in a kitchen pouring milk out of a pitcher into a bowl around the food. In this essay, I will explain my analysis and interpretation of this painting through describing elements and defining my own meaning from thoughts on research.

Throughout a great deal of history, humankind has often been guided by religious beliefs and religious convictions. At times, it has afforded a profound level of cultural progress, but it has also served as one of the most destructive forces possible, inciting long-lasting wars, instigating ethnic cleansing, and insurrecting culturally biased behaviors. Well into “middle age” for the current life span of an American male, my brother and I were not raised with a lick of religion in our household. That is not to say that my parents did not “believe” in a higher power; however, we were never told or t that any one particular religion or faith was better than another… we were

Mental rotation is an important function of visual representation in the human brain when dealing with misoriented stimuli, which is the ability to rotate two and three-dimensional objects in one’s mind. In everyday life, people’s ability to recognize faces and objects from unconventional perspectives stems from their ability to mentally rotate objects. The earliest experiment to research on the concept of mental rotation was by Shepard and Metzler (1971). In the classic experiment, participants were presented with drawings of pairs of two-dimensional figures and three-dimensional cubes that were asymmetrically assembled. Each pair were either

In Claude Monet 's In the Woods at Giverny- Blanche Hoschede at Her Easel with Suzanne Hochede Reading, we are shown, as the name implies, an outdoor woods setting. A woman wearing a dark coat reading a book in the grass while another woman dressed in blue paints her on the easel. The overall setting is very tranquil as the women in the painting are the only differences in the painting with their difference in the value, color, the subtle brushwork and even the point of view. These differences distinguish them from the background, however, still feel as if they belong there and doesn 't disturb the flow of the image.

This essay will discuss the statement by William James, “-whilst part of what we perceive comes through our senses but another part (and it may be the larger part) always comes out of our head.” (James, 1890). This excerpt relates to the topic of perception, which can be defined as the acquisition and processing of sensory information to see, hear, taste, or feel objects, whilst guiding an organism’s actions with respect to those objects (Sekuler & Blake, 2002). Every theory of perception begins with the question of what features of the surrounding environment can be apprehended through direct pickup (Runeson et al. 2000). Is it only vague elemental cues that are available, and development and expansion through cognitive processes is required
