Seek and Find 5: Perception at Work

Turn-in link: Seek-and-Find 5 on Canvas

In this seek and find, your goal is to find an image (doesn’t even have to be a visualization – photographs and advertisements are great sources of this!) where some perceptual principle is being exploited.

Think of some principle you learned about in class or in the readings, and find an image where that is being used. For example, you might find something where pop-out is used to draw attention to something. Or a place where things are intentionally designed to make you scan and search. Another possibility is a place where some “illusion” is happening where your visual system is mislead.

With your image, please explain the principles that it demonstrates.

As usual, you can turn this in on Canvas.
