Actually, your senses are correct. It is how your mind interprets those images that goes wrong. The problem is that to interpret an image the mind has to find objects in the image, so it looks to make matches with what it already knows. For instance; We are used to all houses being rectangular so the mind miss identifies an object which has similarities to a house. http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=end...hLPhdjj0Uo
