TO SEE OR NOT
When we see a
moving thing, we see and percieve
movement. In order to see movement we
should at least see the object in one position and then in another. If we do not see the object in its first
position namely if we have not seen it before, we will not see the object as
moving.
We do not see
movement of an object unless we have seen it before.
There is a time
lapse, that passes between the initial and current positions of the
object. The more the time lapse the
bigger the movement for the same constant speed.
Now, what happens
if we diminish the time lapse till the movement gets down to 0, in limit.bbAnd apply our rule
: We do not see movement of an object unless we have seen it before.
We do not see an
object unless we have seen it before.
Let's take an
example:
Looking at a
picture of 5 gentlemen on a photo. If
you do not know one of them or have not seen him before, you will not notice
him. It will appear only as 5 gentlemen
to you because you are initiated to gentlemen class in your semantic memory.
An other example:
If you see a
modern picture with no specific motive or figure. It will appear to you as caos unless you are
initiated to specific modern art approaches and styles. If not you will still see lines, colors etc.
which do exist in your semantic memory and inherited perception abilities such
as 'good continuation'.
A philosophical
issue:
Is it possible to
see God. We can not see what we have not
seen before.
Nevertheless,
like graphical primitives, hard-wired inherited abilities such as good
continuation, we can percieve his attributes such as vigilance.
Whether given
down or created, God is an important concept in the culture of the human
society. Many functions of God are being
performed by human beings in today's world, air traffic control, hospitals,
disaster recovery etc. Special care
should be spent to improve the concepts that constitute the attributes of God such as mercy, compassion.
