In this review article, I summarize some of our recent work on the neural basis of visual search in scenes, showing how attention and expectation interactively drive preparatory activity in visual cortex and jointly modulate the visual processing of potential target objects. doi.org/10.1177/0963...

In this post, I propose a simple description of when pictures appear distorted, and how multiperspective photography creates distortion-free wide-angle pictures. This is part of my new perspective perception theory for art and photography. #visionscience aaronhertzmann.com/2024/09/09/d...

TechnoSphere--an online digital ecosystem simulation--was launched OTD in 1995. Users could create their own creatures and watch them interact. Although the character parameters were simple, spontaneous group behaviors such as herding emerged, and follow-on changes in predator strategies. 🌱🐋 🦋🦫🧪🌎
