Evolution has resulted in a visual system that makes us believe that what we see is reality. Here I have altered what we see to give us an alternative view. For now, this is done in PS and would like to dig inside my brain and the internet to figure you I can use Processing to switch between the two versions dynamically, or else change the range of colours. I might have to ask OCA Simon C. who also went on the course at TPG with me for some help.
The underlying motivation for making this image this way is not to suggest our vision is constructed – that word, in particular, suggests some sort of external volition. Rather – to explore how our visual systems give us parochial and limited albeit evolutionary adaptive view; one which makes everything seem isolated and seperated.
