Got it cheap from a used store, unfortunately it's a dud. Returned for a refund. Before it was returned, took some naked images of the mic to capture the mechanical art inside. :)

Perception goes beyond the obvious and what the eye can see.

Eventhough we mostly perceive the world through our senses - sight, hearing, smell, taste & touch - the mind and the heart are responsible for much further input analysis.

 

Sometimes we call it intuition or a "feeling of"....it is this which brings butterflies in our stomach when we are in love, but also this voice that insists on telling us to be cautious of a situation despite what apparent facts might be.

 

Should we be a little bit clear with ourselves, then we can most probably trust this voice/ emotion/feeling and dive into a situation with all our heart, despite the risks involved or simply deny to trust, eventhough our ears are being pet.

 

How many boats are displayed here?...four can be counted, but maybe there are as many more not caputred in the picture....

Always see beyond the horizon.....

...perception is endless and eternal.

Dubrovnik, Croatia.

 

** Location Micro-samples Added **

City lint and dust, standing rain water from pools, chips of buidlign materials, Dalmation Sea water, minerals from coastal rocks and windfall coastal plant matter.

  

Michael's Working Practice

Minute amounts of water, windfall samples - organic and mineral - are collected from the very landscape depicted within each picture - and chemically bonded with the film over 12 months.

 

The results is a nature-disrupted film process that creates unedited images that are inbetween a classic photograph and a totally abstract image, depicting the interaction between fundamental chemical elements present at each place & time, representing a more visceral and literal experience of being present in landscapes in a constant state of natural or unnatural flux. . .

"When we look at a rock, what we are seeing is not the rock, but the effect of the rock upon us."

~Bertrand Russell

 

I borrowed this quote from Vision-Revision's comment on a photo from last winter.

It seemed appropriate.

 

My husband calls it the Floaty Rock.

It isn't in perfect focus, but I like it anyway.

That weed reflection makes it feel absolutely strange.

“Blessed are they who see beautiful things in humble places where other people see nothing.”

Tricky things are eyes and brains. Sometimes, they don't quite tell it as it is. Like here.

 

We're at Llandudno, it's early evening, the weather is all over the place and so is this picture. But, hang on, look again. The shot is actually perfectly straight. Never mind the half-cock platform lighting or the PIS screen that looks like it might succumb to gravity any second. Go stand in that spot, that exact spot that I stood on. This is what you'll see.

 

There's every chance that your train wont be 67022 with the Manwag set on 1K96 of course, you have barely 30 minutes 5 days a week for that one. But time it right and it just might be...

CONSCIOUSNESS IS QUANTIZED: Consciousness occurs in ‘time slices’ lasting only milliseconds, study suggests.

 

According to Herzog and fellow researcher Frank Scharnowski from the University of Zurich, neither the ‘continuous’ nor ‘discrete’ hypotheses can by themselves aptly describe how we process the world around us, as numerous studies testing people’s visual awareness seem to disprove both notions.

 

But what if elements of both hypotheses were taking place at the same time in a continuous interplay between conscious and unconscious thought?

 

“According to our model, the elements of a visual scene are first unconsciously analysed. This period can last up to 400 ms and involves, amongst other processes, the analysis of stimulus features such as the orientation or colour of elements and temporal features such as object duration and object simultaneity,” the authors write in PLOS Biology.

 

After this analysis is complete, the researchers say the features we’ve detected are integrated into our conscious perception, compressing all the unconscious recording into something we’re actually aware of.

 

In other words, while we’re taking the world in, we’re not actually consciously perceiving it. Instead, we’re just mutely using our senses to record data for up to 400 ms at a time. Then, in what could be called a moment of clarity, we consciously perceive the stimuli that our senses have detected.

 

The team thinks this presentation of information to our consciousness lasts for about 50 milliseconds, during which we also stop taking new sensory information in. And then repeat.

 

Hmm. Or maybe this is evidence that we’re living in a computer simulation. Also see this.

someone's sneaking back into the kitchen... i wonder why?

“Objective perception means perceiving reality, all that confronts our awareness, as it is. It is a matter of seeing things as they are, rather than seeing them from a certain point of view or position. So by objective we do not mean the scientific positivist sense, in which objective means what exists physically outside us rather than in the mind. We also do not mean objective in the sense of not being emotional, or not being experiential. We mean seeing things, seeing internal or external things as they are, instead of subjectively. Subjective is the antithesis; it means according to our positions, feelings, filters, beliefs and attitudes. So objective perception means pure perception, free from all positions, bias, filters, conflicts, intentions etc. It is perceiving whatever it is without any obscuration or intermediacy, so we see it just the way it is in itself.” - A. Hameed Ali

 

How many passers-by actually perceived 4 and 5-year old Fabrício and Guilherme living on the streets of São Paulo?

 

Objectively or subjectively......?

 

I'll be telling their story in a new group later on..................and asking for your help too!

I posted this picture a few weeks back as a composite/weird edit. See link below

Its an instant favorite of mine, however, it did not get much attention. So I took out the edit I did and went bare bones here....minus some retouching. So maybe this one will go over better. Constructive criticism encouraged... cheers
