Gestalt Psychology, Meaning 'Shapeform' and defining an area of psychology that aims to understand our ability to perceive and organise the world.
'The whole is other than the sum of the parts'-Kurt Koffka
We attempt to define an object by observing its outline rather than immediately examining its constituent parts.
We also talked about continuation, law of pragnanz, closure, symmetry and order which I found interesting because I never thought about how our eyes see things that are not necessarily there and how you try to make things more basic.
We also watched The Sandpit which I thought had an interesting perception and I thought that it looks like it was made with stop motion and moving little models around however It is made with tilt shift perception.
