Abstract:
We examine a dynamical network model of visual processing that reproduces several aspects of a well-known optical illusion, including subtle dependencies on curvature and scale. The model uses a genetic algorithm to construct the percept of an image, and we show that this percept evolves dynamically so as to produce the illusions reported. We find that the perceived illusions are hardwired into the model architecture and we propose that this approach may serve as an archetype to distinguish behaviors that are due to nature (i.e. a fixed network architecture) from those subject to nurture (that can be plastically altered through learning).

Abstract:
The article provides an overview of the methods used to assess visual perception in persons with disabilities. The authors divided visual techniques and optical illusions from the “Visual Phenomena and Illusions” catalog into groups according to the main properties of a person’s visual perception. The main types of disorders occurring in persons with disabilities in case of affection and / or insufficient development of the visual, cognitive and psycho-emotional systems are also considered. These methods for assessing visual perception can be used in the framework of psychological and pedagogical support, in the educational process and in psychological examinations of students of inclusive groups in higher education organizations. Their use allows screening examinations of students with psychophysical impairments and receiving information about the peculiarities of their visual perceptual processes and the development of the mental sphere. As the practical experience of the authors of the article shows, the use of visual techniques and optical illusions is a way to increase interest and motivation to learn from students; allows you to identify limitations in the perception of students with disabilities and especially the flow of cognitive processes in them.

Abstract:
The author considers research into allegedly supernatural “Electronic Voice Phenomena” (EVP) in light of both anecdotal reports and formal experimental studies of related aspects of human auditory perception. He offers the primary hypothesis that an understanding of the relevant aspects of psychoacoustics provides a complete explanation for most EVP recordings, and a secondary hypothesis that an informed understanding of these processes is as relevant to the emergent field of sound art as studies of optical illusions have been to the study of visual art.

Abstract:
Introduction: Nowadays there are a number of questionnaires with a score assessment of mental disorders. However, they are not adapted to the specific manifestations of DRP and require additional correction. The aim: To determine the criteria of necessity of psychological help for the patient with DRP. Materials and methods: 96 patients with DRP. The methods of the study were as follows: functional diagnostic examinations (visometry without correction and with optimal correction, direct and indirect ophthalmoscopy, optical coherent tomography of the retina and the optic disc); the assessment of mental state of patients using original and adapted tests. Results: The criteria of necessity of specialized psychological help for the patient with DRP are: level of fatigue manifestations in points is higher than 33 for patients with NPDRP, 49 with PPDRP and 56 with PDRP (according to the mean values of the total score of MFI at the corresponding stage of DRP); veracity of at least 2 statements from the additional questions and/or high values (>12) of at least 2 MFI subscales; changes in cognitive function, classified as severe or moderate. Conclusions: The integrated, modified questionnaire for patient’s mental condition assessment, based on MFI for fatigue manifestations, MMSE for cognitive impairment and the additional questions provides a reliable way to determine the criteria for specialized psychological help necessity.

Abstract:
Background. Analyzing the recent publications one can observe that scientists are quite interested in optical art. The issues of op-art in the Ukrainian art have been investigated by V.Kosiv, N.Diadiukh-Bohatko and L.Andrushko, I.Kuznetsova and O.Arbuzova, S.Bodnarenko and V.Nekrasa. The research of foreign scientists, where the authors argue that studies in fine arts can bring important conclusions about the visual system, is of importance in the development of this topic.Therefore, analyzing the processes of the development of traditional and modern artistic forms, it can be stated that op-art both in the Ukrainian cultural environment and in general, continues to exist, but in somewhat modified form. Goals. The purpose of this article is to review key ideas, author's models and preconditions for the development of op-art in XX - beginning of XXI centuries. The objective of the proposed publication is the widest representation of op-art in various spheres and directions of the modern artistic process, as well as to reveal the potential opportunities for the creation of a new visual art. Methods. In the course of this work, generalization and idealization were taken for the main methods. Basic methods such as abstraction, analogy, modeling and hypothetical approach were also used in this study. Results. The article reviews the origins and formation of optical art. The psychophysical influence of optical illusions on the recipient has been considered. The key concepts of op-art development and their influence on the development of contemporary art in general have been outlined. The emergence and significance of anonymous groups in Western Europe that explore a wide range of kinetic art and optical effects using various types of artificial light and mechanical motion has been explored. The influence of technological progress on the formation of optical techniques in art has been determined, as well as their specificity and transformation into various areas of the artistic process. The role of synthesis of op-art and kinetic art in creating a wide range of visual effects has been traced. Possibilities of application of optical illusions in various aspects of cultural and artistic process have been revealed. The history of the creation of anonymous groups and their influence on the stylistic peculiarities of the art has been studied. The article demonstrates the significance of volumetric - spatial structures in the modern globalized world and their convergence with the forms of massive spectacles and attractions using optical techniques. At the same time, the importance of further research of the little-known phenomenon of optical art in Ukraine has been emphasized. Conclusions. Summing up the influence and historical aspects of the development of op-art, one can confidently state that there is no clear answer and criteria for designating a direction to specific frames, since there are many different factors, each of which makes some modifications to optical illusions. This is not just about the visual component, but also about an ideology that collectively expands the field for experiments. Thus, one can state that the present theoretical research about the emergence of op-art and its significance in the modern globalized world’s art demonstrates the existence of various conceptual approaches and reveals new vectors of representing the art of the third millennium. Therefore, it should be noted that artistic modifications that occur under the influence of modern technologies require more attention and deeper investigation of the poorly-studied phenomenon of the optical art in Ukraine.

Abstract:
A practical course for preclinical medical students was developed to illustrate aspects of binocular vision and mechanisms of primary visual transduction. It is based on a graphic analysis of two optical illusions, the Pulfrich and the Mach-Dvorak phenomena. A pendulum swinging in a plane perpendicular to the direction of observation appears to follow an elliptical path when viewed binocularly with a filter in front of one eye (Pulfrich illusion) or with alternating occlusion of the right and left eye above a critical frequency (Mach-Dvorak illusion). The Pulfrich phenomenon permits us to determine the relationship between perceived illusory depth and filter density. Analyzing the Mach-Dvorak phenomenon allows us to determine the dependence of illusory depth on interocular delay. Comparison of both determinations (depth against transmission and depth against time) permits us to establish, without complex calculations, the effect of luminescence on visual processing time. In addition, this course illustrates a general methodological concept mentioned by Popper: students make an unexpected observation, put forward a testable hypothesis, and try to falsify it.

Resumen: Se ofrece una exégesis del análisis wittgensteiniano de la familia de nociones emparentadas con la percepción del aspecto, centrada en las relaciones de este tema con la explicación general del lenguaje ofrecida en la primera parte de las Investigaciones Filosóficas. La tesis exegética fundamental es que los parecidos y diferencias involucrados en el ver como (y en el apercibimiento de aires de familia en general) están fundamentados in re, y no son puestos o construidos por el sujeto. A la luz de esta exégesis, se exploran las posibilidades de aplicar el análisis wittgensteiniano a algunos problemas filosóficos contemporáneos. Palabras Clave: Wittgenstein, ver como, cambio de aspecto, figuras dobles, ilusiones ópticas. Abstract: This paper provides an interpretation of Wittgenstein´s analysis of aspect perception and related notions. The main exegetic thesis is that similarities and differences involved in “see as” and the perception of family resemblance in general are founded in reality, and are not imposed or built by the perceiver. Some applications of Wittgenstein analysis according to this interpretation to contemporary philosophical issues are explored. Key Words: Wittgenstein, aspect seeing, change of aspects, optical illusions.

Abstract:
The article analyzes three media technologies for creating an immersive polysensory environment, developed back in 1940–1960s by the Spanish film director and engineer Jose Val del Omar. The technologies are considered in the context of the director’s key concept, which he called “mechanical mysticism”. It was aimed at creating a cinematic analogy of mystical experience by transforming the mysticism of Spanish culture into cinematic technologies. The author reveals how the conversion of the suggestive artistic potential of Spanish mysticism into the immersiveness of film technologies allowed J. Val del Omar to create art spaces that took the system of illusions beyond the visual into special modes of psychological experiences. On the example of his films (Water- Mirror of Granada, 1955, and Fire in Castile, 1961), the author analyzes the originality of the engineering solutions of J. Val del Omar’s technologies, defines the strategies of immersiveness and their rootedness in Spanish mysticism, qualifies the aesthetic impact of these media technologies on viewers. The article demonstrates that immersiveness is achieved by using a shock strategy of interlacing the effects of suggestiveness and defamiliarization (“ostranenie”), as well as through the expansion of the range of the viewer’s sensory perception and the effect of synesthesia. The suggestive impression effect is enhanced by visual poetic metaphors that reveal to the viewers the historically formed sensual imagery of Spanish mysticism. With the help of optical and light technologies, the semantic field of a film is not only visualized, but also illusively materialized as a three-dimensional image. НАУКА ТЕЛЕВИДЕНИЯ № 17.1, 2021 54 THE ART AND SCIENCE OF TELEVISION In general, the strategies reproduce the sensual immersiveness, which is inherent in the Spanish Catholic cultural experience. Such strategies block the viewers’ psychological distancing mechanisms and cause affective states and emotional involvement in the art spaces. Such technological innovations for creation of immersive spectacular audio-visual environments brought the J. Val del Omar’s cinema into the field of multi-media, and therefore he could rightfully be considered the forerunner of media art, the creator of art spaces, which later became known as sound and video installations.

Abstract:
This study investigated the effects of selfesteem, controllability, and optimism, the constructs inherent in positive illusions, on perceived racism. The perceived racism scale in this study was found to contain two dimensions, Equal Opportunity (EO) racism and Authority (AUT) racism. Thirty-seven AfricanAmerican, 64 Asian-American and 100 White-American students at Portland States University {101 females, 100 males and mean age of 25 years) served as subjects. The findings revealed that both African- and AsianAmerican students perceived a racist atmosphere from peer students {EO racism) significantly higher than did the White-American students. However, only AfricanAmerican students perceived greater racism from faculty members (AUT racism) than the White-American students. None of the illusions had an effect on perceived EO racism. However, all types of illusions (self-esteem, controllability and optimism) had a significant effect on perceived racism from faculty members {AUT racism). Higher perception of AUT racism was correlated with less self-esteem(~= -.089, R = .12), less controllability(~= -.319, R < .001), and less optimism (~ = -.144, R = .03). The results of this study support empirical evidence showing that the illusions, especially controllability, change individuals in how they perceive racism when the racism is practiced by authorities.

Abstract:
Action has many influences on how and what we perceive. One robust example of the relationship between action and subsequent perception, which has recently received great attention in the cognitive sciences, is the “intentional binding” effect: When people estimate the timing of their actions and those actions’ effects, they judge the actions and effects as having occurred closer together in time than two events that do not involve voluntary action (Haggard, Clark, & Kalogeras, 2002). This dissertation examines the possible mechanisms and consequences of the intentional binding effect. First, in Chapter 1, I discuss previous literature on the relationships between experiences of time, action, and causality. Impressions of time and causality are psychologically related: The perceived timing of events impacts, and is impacted by, perceived causality. Similarly, one’s experience of causing and controlling events with voluntary action, sometimes called the sense of agency, shapes and is shaped by how those events’ timing is perceived—as shown by the intentional binding effect. In Chapter 2 I present a series of experiments investigating a hypothesized mechanism underlying the intentional binding effect: Actions may lead to a slowing of subjective time, which would explain the intentional binding effect by postulating a shorter experienced duration between action and effect. This hypothesis predicts that, following action, durations separating any two stimuli would appear subjectively shorter. We tested this hypothesis in the context of visual motion illusions: Two visual stimuli are presented in short succession and if the duration between the stimuli (inter-stimulus interval; ISI) is short, participants tend to perceive motion such that the first stimulus appears to move to the position of the second stimulus. If actions shorten subjective durations, even in visual perception, people should observe motion at longer ISIs when the stimuli follow voluntary action because the two stimuli would be separated by less subjective time. Three experiments confirmed this prediction. An additional experiment showed that verbal estimates of the ISI are also shorter following action. A control experiment suggested that a shift in the ability to prepare for the stimuli, afforded by the participant initiating the stimuli, is an unlikely alternative explanation of the observed results. In Chapter 3 I further investigate whether temporal contiguity of actions and their effects, which is known to impact intentional binding, affects perceptions of visual motion illusions. Two experiments showed that temporal contiguity modulates perceptions of illusory motion in a manner similar to contiguity’s effect on intentional binding. Together, these results show that actions impact perception of visual motion illusions and suggest that general slowing of subjective time is a plausible mechanism underlying the intentional binding effect.

Abstract:
Video game playing is a popular activity and its enjoyment among frequent players has been associated with absorption and immersion experiences. This paper examines how immersion in the video game environment can influence the player during the game and afterwards (including fantasies, thoughts, and actions). This is what is described as Game Transfer Phenomena (GTP). GTP occurs when video game elements are associated with real life elements triggering subsequent thoughts, sensations and/or player actions. To investigate this further, a total of 42 frequent video game players aged between 15 and 21 years old were interviewed. Thematic analysis showed that many players experienced GTP, where players appeared to integrate elements of video game playing into their real lives. These GTP were then classified as either intentional or automatic experiences. Results also showed that players used video games for interacting with others as a form of amusement, modeling or mimicking video game content, and daydreaming about video games. Furthermore, the findings demonstrate how video games triggered intrusive thoughts, sensations, impulses, reflexes, optical illusions, and dissociations.
