Episode Synopsis

Ep 18. Visual perception is a large percentage of our day to day and moment to moment perceptual experience but is also prone to error under stress and high speed presentation of visual stimulus. The Uncanny valley was coined in 1970 as a response to the forward thinking of Japanese robotist Masaharu Mori when he hypothesized our response to increasingly human-like technology. The interpretation of visual stimulus very closely presages perceptual signals that we interpret resulting at times in faulty and inaccurate beliefs that can at times seem crazy, irrational or fantastical. The error is after the perception at the cognitive level with limited or ambiguous information. This may lend itself, depending on the stress of the situation to categorize and make sense of things that do not make sense if things present faster than 100 milliseconds. Hey folks, let me know what you think about the Running Man Podcast.
