From the Animation to the Real World: Ghouls Are Roaring “[A]nimated feature films draw much of their dramatic intensity from the struggle between human and nonhuman creatures” (Halberstam 272). It seems this formula works very well for most animations because there is always existing conflicts on two or more different classes. While we are enjoying the show to see how many tricks involving in both parties, is there anything we should deeply consider for the part as human?…

Lilysong believed in tough love, and she taught her daughter that her focus needed to be on the wellbeing of the…

Theories of Color Vision The visual abilities of human beings are incredibly fascinating. We can view a large range of color from a small choice of wavelengths along the electromagnetic spectrum, 400nm-700nm. Our understanding of this perception of color comes from two major theories Tri-chromatic theory of color vision and opponent-process theory. Both theories have their merits and one actually grew out of the other. The first theory proposed was the tri-chromatic theory. The tri-chromatic…

Babies can only See in Black and White The visual system is the most complex sensory system in the human body (Swartout-Corbeil, n.d.), which contains receptor cells that are sensitive to the physical energy of light. However, it is very immature system at birth. A neonate is unable to see patterns because of the immature optic muscles. William James, the great 19th century philosopher and psychologist, once described the sensory-perceptual world of infants as a "blooming, buzzing confusion"…

The concept of video editing is introduced by Clive Thompson in his chapter The New Literacies. Where Thompson discusses moving image -video- as a literacy that has evolved “into a flexible format for communication, a way to speak one’s ideas to the world” (Thompson 98). The accessibility of cameras allows for video editing to be more convenient for individuals. Cameras have evolved into devices which allow individuals to express their ideas and overcome obstacles through video editing; in order…

Many diverse emotions and physical feelings were involved during my contrived experience. Before simulating monocular vision due to Arteritic Anterior Ischemic Optic Neuropathy (NAAION), I did not anticipate the increased level of difficulty that certain normal activities of daily living (ADLs) and instrumental activities of daily living (IADLs) would have on my day. My experience consisted of an eye-patch covering up my left eye for 12 hours. Some of the activities I found to be the more…

Texture analysis is one of the fundamental aspects of human vision by which we differentiate between surfaces and objects. Texture refers to visual patterns or spatial organization of pixels. Texture classification is deals with identifying a given textured region from a given set of texture classes. Each of these regions has unique texture characteristics. Statistical methods are extensively used to determine the texture as a quantitative measure of the arrangement of intensities in a region…
