Presentation transcript:

Gestalt Organization How the brain organizes incomplete information perceptually into a whole. “The whole is greater than the sum of its parts.” Our experiences, schemas and expectations allow our brains to complete the picture. 5 types of Gestalts: Similarity, Continuity, Connectedness, Proximity, & Closure Visual Gestalt tendencies: Figure-Ground…see next slide…

Do you see both words?

Which Gestalt principle is illustrated here? Similarity

And which Gestalt here? Connectedness

And the smiley face is created by using what Gestalt principle?... Proximity

What is in the foreground? Background?

Continuity

And here (2…)? Closure & Connectedness

Binocular Cues—requires eyes Retinal disparity: each retina sees a slightly different version of the object and judges it’s dimensions Convergence: a neural muscular cue based on the convergence of the eyes which helps the brain judge distance by how the eye has to work to focus on a scene or object. See next slide for “floating finger sausage” example…

Monocular Cues: Can tell depth w/1 Linear Perspective Relative Brightness Relative Clarity Relative Size Relative Height Relative Motion Interposition Texture Gradient
