Blur explanations

As light filters into the eye and the brain processes it, the output from this internal representation causes vision. If this process is broken down into its basic funtion, we can entertain this primordial sensation of vision as being entirely different from the one we take for granted.

Light hits the retina and this signal is processed and stored as a representative experience in the mind. These tests explore what this first stage of light may be like based on neurological and medical experiments and explanations of sight.

The eyes track the movement of the scene while the pupil enlarges to absorb varying light levels, resulting in a fluctuating blur. When the mind has never seen before, the system and arrangement of objects is indeciferable, thus rendering seemingly banal scenes extraordinary.



The notion of binocular vision is ignored by standard cartesian perspectivalism. In this clip I'm trying to express how the mind uses the eyes to generate our semblance of seamless visual / spatial reality. The vector objects are representations of the eyes movement in tracking the light and movement.
As the eye focuses gradually on the object of interest, the movement, form and colour gain meaning
