Hello All,
The discussion comparing the eye and camera has been interesting. Here is a
spin on it for you. There has been some projects going on to replace
damaged retinas with implants. A few of these projects involve sending
pictures to a receiver in the eye. The projects have the blind
Well, you'll need to speak with my Physiological Psychology teacher of 30 years
ago, as that is what our textbook said. We do not see things as continuous
streams, but as frames.

Wow, your site is very informative! That must have taken a long time.
I like your pinhole shots. I got a bunch of altoid tins film cans ready to
shoot with yesterday. But by the time I got the
Hi all,
Here's my bit on the eye/camera subject:
Different parts of the visual field are processed by the brain at different
speeds, if you notice a TV or a computer monitor in the edge of your field
of vision then you can often see the flicker of the scanning beam down the
