Explore how context, attention and framing can shape an experience. These are invitations to notice, not tests.
01 / PERCEPTION
The same light, a different surround
Change the ring around the two centres. Their fill colour is identical.
Why might they look different?
Surrounding contrast can influence perceived brightness. The centres here share the same colour value; perception depends partly on visual context.
02 / ATTENTION
A field of small signals
Choose one feature to bring forward, then reveal the full field.
A note on attention
Selective attention prioritises some information for processing. What is noticed can depend on the task and the scene; this small display does not measure attention.
03 / INTERPRETATION
A pause at the doorway
One moment, three possible frames. Notice what each frame invites you to infer.
☂◯▤
Someone has come in from the rain and stopped at the threshold.
It is raining. A person is at a doorway. We do not know why they are there or what happens next.
What is observed, and what is supplied by the frame?
