Da Vinci Notes #39 - Bias
The eye which sees all objects reversed retains the images for
some time. This conclusion is proved by the results; because, the
eye having gazed at light retains some impression of it. After
looking (at it) there remain in the eye images of intense
brightness, that make any less brilliant spot seem dark until the
eye has lost the last trace of the impression of the stronger light.
Keith's Ideas:
1. Our perception is influenced by our previous perception - this
is called bias.
2. if we allow ourselves to see/inspect things long enough, we
can see the truth better. This happens as our previous perception
deminishes. Don't Jump to conclusion.
