<
strong>Lecture by Professor Brian Rogers Emeritus ProfessorDepartment of Experimental Psychology University of Oxford, Oxford , UK "Perception, Art an d Illusion" What is ‘perception’? What does it mean to perceive? What are the similarities and differences between our ev eryday perception of the surrounding world and our perception of artworks? How can perceptual research help us to understand art and, conversely, how can the study of art help us to understand the processes of perception? And what is an ‘illusion’? Are all our perceptions ‘illusions’? These are some of the questions that I would like to address in the 2020 Julesz lecture. Much of what has been written about relevance of perceptual research to art has focused on low-level mechanisms such as seeing edges, contrast and col our but these aspects of perception are of little interest to artists. Inst ead, I would like to argue that we need to think about perception as an abi lity to extract meaning - what the world offers us - from sensory stimulati on, and that this is just as relevant to the perception of art as it is to our everyday perception of the surrounding world. | |

Brian Rog ers is Emeritus Professor of Experimental Psychology at the University of O xford and also Professor of Psychology at the State University of St Peters burg. He started his career as an undergraduate and post-graduate student a t Bristol University where he was supervised by Stuart Anstis and the late Richard Gregory. After leaving Bristol, he was appointed to a Lectureship a nd subsequently a Readership at St Andrews University in Scotland before mo ving to the University of Oxford in 1984. His main research interests are i n 3-D vision, illusions and motion perception as well as the role of percep tion in the control of action. He has co-authored three books: “Binocular V ision and Stereopsis”, “Seeing in Depth” and “Perceiving in Depth” with the late Ian Howard and in 2017 he wrote “Perception - A Very Short Introducti on” published by Oxford University Press.
IN TRIBUTE TO: h3>Bela Julesz pioneered the use of computer-generate d textures with controlled statistical and geometrical properties, such as random-dot stereograms and cinematograms. He was one of the founders of the application of complexity theory to the brain. Bela investigated principle s of globality, cooperativity and entropy in the human brain through the me dium of complex visual perception. He did research for 32 years at AT&T Bell Laboratories and was the founder/director of the Laboratory of Vision Research at Rutgers. He collaborated with many great scientists to advance our knowledge of form and pattern vision, local feature detection and spat ial frequency analysis, higher-order texture and motion processing, binocul ar depth perception and global stereopsis, and many other related topics. H e originated many concepts that were ahead of their time, such as mental ho lography, the cyclopean retina, the use of visual noise as a tool for visio n research, visual cooperativity, neurontropy, stereoattention, and texton theory. Bela was chosen for a McArthur “Genius Award” in 1983, was elected to the National Academy of Sciences in 1995, and received numerous other aw ards.

Lecture by Profe
ssor Brian Rogers Emeritus Professor Department of Exper imental Psychology University of Oxford, Oxford, UK "Perception, Art and Illusion" What is ‘perception’? What does it mean to perceive? What are the similarities and differences between our everyday perception of th e surrounding world and our perception of artworks? How can perceptual rese arch help us to understand art and, conversely, how can the study of art he lp us to understand the processes of perception? And what is an ‘illusion’? Are all our perceptions ‘illusions’? These are some of the questions that I would like to address in the 2020 Julesz lecture. Much of what has been w ritten about relevance of perceptual research to art has focused on low-lev el mechanisms such as seeing edges, contrast and colour but these aspects o f perception are of little interest to artists. Instead, I would like to ar gue that we need to think about perception as an ability to extract meaning - what the world offers us - from sensory stimulation, and that this is ju st as relevant to the perception of art as it is to our everyday perception of the surrounding world. | |
