The relief-texture and neutral tones of the wall surface are in stark contrast to the plastic folds of color-saturated tape, creating a visual conflict to the perspective depth of Bassel's forms and spatial lines.
One particularly salient form of visual conflict is binocular rivalry, fluctuations in perceptual dominance between two dissimilar stimuli presented separately to the two eyes [2].
Our results indicate that when a visual conflict reoccurs, traces of past perception increase the probability that the visual system will assume a previous state of interpretation rather than a different one.
We have revealed a binocular, pattern-based, and temporally coarse mechanism, possibly positioned in the ventral form-pathway, that is an essential and heretofore unrecognized mechanism in the formation of visual awareness during the resolution of binocular visual conflict when processing dynamic, inherently-ambiguous, visual information.
The values of debates are the values of television: celebrity, visuals, conflict and hype".
It is the enhancement of the visual-proprioceptive conflict rather than reafferent visual stimulation, on this interpretation, that explains why active movement yields more adaptation than passive movement in Held's experiments.
Such experiments would be very much in the spirit of Wallach's earlier work on adaptation to visual cue conflict (e.g., Wallach & Frey, 1972; Wallach & Karsh, 1963; Wallach, Moore, & Davidson, 1963), as well as of the subsequent study of perceptual adaptation and learning based on such conflict (e.g., Fisher & Ebenholtz, 1986; Priot, Laboissière, Sillan, Roumes, & Prablanc, 2010).
Cynthia Ryan, executive director of the Vestibular Disorders Association, says 3D effects can cause "intense nausea, dizziness and vertigo", sometimes from general vision problems, but also from visual-vestibular conflict.
They employed prismatic lenses to create a visual-proprioceptive conflict, albeit one that does not engender the experience of ownership for the rubber hand.
Visually induced reaching errors, as demonstrated in previous 'mirror illusion' reaching experiments, should therefore be greater under visual-proprioceptive conflict in the azimuthal direction than in the radial direction.
However, this would rather lead to an attenuation of the visual-proprioceptive conflict and thus a reverse result pattern.
