As the project's name suggests, Wiscombe intends for his billboard to have not just a static visual function, but an active public role as well.
In choosing to photograph trans-masculine people, Melamed takes on the formidable challenge of using a static, visual medium to capture both an abstraction (gender identity) and the metamorphosis (transition) that seeks to express it.
To elicit a broad range of decision-related FR patterns that we wished to investigate, we used a variant of a recently reported RT static visual checkerboard discrimination task11.
Conclusion: Optimization of the cervigram classification improved performance over a single interpretation in this population but suggested the limits of static visual screening.
The results showed no differences between groups on tests of static visual acuity, stereoacuity, dynamic visual acuity or motion direction discrimination.
For the basic landscape elements — terrain, vegetation, and water — some standard techniques for convincing static visual representation have been developed, but many complicating questions and obstacles remain.
These visual motion percepts only occurred when the site of stimulation overlapped directly with the region of the brain that had increased fMRI and electrophysiological activity during moving compared to static visual stimuli in the same individual subjects.
They were randomly assigned to one of the six experimental conditions in a 2 × 3 factorial design with verbal modality (on-screen text procedure vs. auditory procedure) and the format of visual representation (static visual representation vs. static visual representation with motion cues vs. animated visual representation).
Twenty years ago, when television was just getting under way in this country and the tobacco companies were beginning to pour big money into commercials, advertising men in the Madison Avenue agencies that had cigarette accounts were working full tilt to convert themselves from the static visual forms of printed advertising to the visual and aural mobility of the new medium.
These studies suggest that the brain can easily establish a strong association between a sound sequence and visual motion within a short period and that, after forming the association, sounds are able to trigger visual motion perception for a static visual stimulus.
The present study demonstrates that prior adaptation to visual apparent motion paired with two alternating and indiscriminable complex tones results in illusory apparent motion of a static visual stimulus, where the perceived direction depends on the order in which the sounds are replayed.
