Week 2 Blog Exercise - Top-Down Visual Processing
This image represents top down visual processing in a graphical design aspect for a few reasons. First being, the design points in this image show a severe contrast, giving the illusion that there is a whit square in the center. In actuality, this is four "pac man" like objects organized in such a way to create a double image. Although this is a 2D image, one could argue that it looks like a 3D image simply based on the layered effect it gives off. Visually speaking, your attention is focused in the center, which ironically enough is the exact spot in the image where there is nothing to see.
