Abstract:
Multiculturalism confirms that peoples of different roots can coexist beyond the boundaries of race, language and religion. In recent times, with the accentuation of new migratory processes, the West has however come to find itself between integration and conflict. New political and religious fundamentalisms have emerged that are threatening the encounter between different cultures. On the one side is fear, and on the other the values of tolerance and respect. This book contains a number of reflections presented at the XII International Summer School on Religions (San Gimignano, 27-31 August 2005) organised by the International Centre for Studies on Contemporary Religion.

Full text
Abstract:
The Ebbinghaus and Delboeuf illusions are two well-established size illusions, both of which demonstrate that the perceived size of an object depends on the physical size of the object relative to surrounding objects. This chapter reviews some of the primary observations and interpretations of these two classic illusions and some of the current theories regarding size contrast (objects appearing more different than they really are) and size assimilation (objects appearing more similar than they really are). Despite over a century of progress in visual psychology and neuroscience, many of the challenges in explaining assimilation and contrast effects on size perception remain highly relevant. Although unlikely to be due to the muscular effort of the eyes as posited by Delboeuf almost 150 years ago, the precise mechanisms that underlie size contrast and size assimilation remain unknown to this day. New discoveries about these and related effects are still being uncovered.

Full text
Abstract:
Static size contrast and assimilation illusions, such as the Ebbinghaus and Delboeuf illusions, show that the size of nearby objects in a scene can influence the perceived size of a central target. This chapter describes a dynamic variant of these classic size illusions, called the Dynamic Illusory Size-Contrast (DISC) effect. In the DISC effect, a surrounding stimulus that continuously changes size causes an illusory size change in a central target. The effect is dramatically enhanced in the presence of additional stimulus dynamics arising from eye movements or target motion. The chapter proposes that this surprisingly powerful effect of motion on perceived size depends on the degree of uncertainty inherent in the size of the retinal image of a moving object.

Full text
Abstract:
A suite of three related visual illusions of size and shape are described—the occlusion illusion (OI), configural shape illusion (CSI), and shrinkage illusion (SI)—along with the relations among them. All can be produced by simple geometric arrangements of two overlapping rectangular surfaces. They differ in the direction of their effects, however, with the OI and CSI making regions appear larger and the SI making them appear smaller. Evidence is also described suggesting that different mechanisms underlie them, with the OI caused by partial modal filling-in along an occluding edge and the CSI and SI by assimilation of edge positions to configually relevant borders.

Abstract:
The geometrical optical illusions, such as the Müller-Lyer and the Poggendorff, are simple line drawings, which demonstrate errors as large as 25% when people are asked to match their properties such as size, angles, and line collinearity. They have been tantalizing people for at least 150 years and are still not really understood. Illusion figures have been used to probe the consistency of different perceptual properties and also of perception and action with implications for the theory of two visual systems. Explanations of geometrical illusions tend to invoke either physiological processes or the functional role illusion responses may have when viewing a 3D scene. This chapter examines all of these theoretical issues, discussing evidence for and against the major theories.

Full text
Abstract:
The Leaning Tower Illusion is the illusion in which two identical images of the Leaning Tower of Pisa photographed from below, placed side by side, appear to rise at different angles. The illusion is not restricted to the Pisa tower however; it occurs in any pair of identical images of objects that appear to recede into the distance. This chapter argues that the illusion results from the misapplication of the visual system’s in-built mechanisms for correcting the distortions due to perspective in two-dimensional images of three-dimensional scenes. The relationship between the Leaning Tower illusion and size constancy illusions is discussed, and it is concluded that they are likely to be closely related.

Full text
Abstract:
Artists, designers, photographers, and visual scientists are routinely looking for ways to create, out of a single image, the feeling that there is more to see than what meets the eye. Many well-known visual illusions are dual in nature, causing the viewer to experience two different interpretations of the same image. Hybrid images illustrate a double-image illusion, where different images are perceived depending on viewing distance, viewing duration, or image size: one that appears when the image is viewed up-close (displaying high spatial frequencies) and another that appears from afar (showing low spatial frequencies). This method can be used to create compelling dual images in which the observer experiences different percepts when interacting with the image.

Full text
Abstract:
A pitched visual field (i.e., a visual stimulus tilted around a horizontal axis in the observer’s frontal plane) generates profound changes in the elevation visually perceived to correspond to eye level (visually perceived eye level [VPEL]). It also affects the perceived elevation and size of objects viewed against the field. With top-forward pitch (top toward the observer), VPEL lies above true eye level and objects appear smaller and lower; with top-backward pitch (top away from the observer) VPEL lies below true eye level and objects appear larger and higher. This chapter summarizes parametric studies of the spatial and temporal properties of multimodal factors that influence the illusion and describes a three-stage neuromathematical model that accounts for the effects.

Full text
Abstract:
This chapter discusses the Breathing Light Illusion. The Breathing Light Illusion is a size and brightness illusion elicited by the self-motion of the observer. The stimulus consists of a circular white spot that is presented on a black background, characterized by blurred boundaries. The blurred spot, which in static view seems to glow and exhibits a self-luminance appearance, is perceived as wider, brighter, and more diffuse when it is approached but smaller, darker, and sharper when one recedes from it. A possible explanation of the phenomenon is related to the superimposition of the afterimage on the physical stimulus during dynamical viewing.

Full text
Abstract:
The generally accepted explanation of the Hermann grid illusion is Baumgartner’s hypothesis that the illusory effect is generated by the response of retinal ganglion cells with concentric ON-OFF or OFF-ON receptive fields. To challenge this explanation, some simple distortions to the grid lines were introduced that make the illusion disappear totally, while all preconditions of Baumgartner’s hypothesis remained unchanged. Psychophysical experiments in which the distortion tolerance was measured showed the level of distortion at which the illusion disappears at a given type of distortion for a given subject. Statistical analysis shows that the distortion tolerance is independent of grid-line width within a wide range and of the type of distortion, except when one side of each line remains straight. The conclusion is the main cause of the Hermann grid illusion is the straightness of the edges of the grid lines. Similar results have been obtained in the scintillating grid.

Full text
Abstract:
When an image shows an individual and a mirror, observers tend to describe the scene by saying that the individual is looking at his or her own refection in the mirror, even when the layout makes this impossible. The name comes from the many examples of paintings of Venus with a mirror, but the effect is not specific to pictures or to women. In addition to difficulties understanding what is visible in a mirror from different viewpoints, observers also struggle to appreciate information such as size of images on transparent surfaces, either mirror or windows. These illusions and difficulties stem from the nature of a visual system tuned to distal information and from the need to discard accidental information from changing perspectives.

Full text
Abstract:
When the vertex of an occluded angle geometrically belongs to the side of the occluding surface, the occluded angle looks distorted. This characteristic effect of coincidental occlusion—called the Gerbino illusion—is consistent with the phenomenal rounding of angles observed under conditions of symmetrical occlusion. Both effects are robust and appear in static and dynamic displays. The Gerbino illusion differs from distortions observed in Poggendorff-like displays, runs against the tendency to global Prägnanz, and reveals important aspects of amodal completion processes. Alternative explanations based on visual interpolation and visual approximation are discussed. According to the approximation-based explanation, the possible discrepancy between internal models and the sensory input is perceptually represented as a phenomenal distortion.

Full text
Abstract:
The object colors that we see are constructed by the visual brain and may therefore be significantly influenced by other visual attributes we perceive the object to possess. This chapter describes an illusion that illustrates one such interdependence between perceived object shape and color. The Chromatic Mach Card is a folded concave card, one side painted white and the other magenta. When the card is perceived in inverted depth, or convex, the pinkish reflections cast by the magenta side onto the white side appear deeper in saturation and painted thereon. Like the nineteenth-century Mach Card that inspired it, the chromatic Mach Card demonstrates that the apparent surface reflectance properties of objects—and, hence, their colors—are inextricably linked to the perception of 3D shape and scene configuration via the visual brain’s inbuilt knowledge of the physics of mutual reflection.

Graf, Friedrich Wilhelm, and Heinrich Meier, eds. Die Zukunft der Demokratie. Verlag C.H.BECK oHG, 2018. http://dx.doi.org/10.17104/9783406726156.

Full text
Abstract:
Die Herausforderung der Demokratie durch den Aufstieg autoritärer Regime und den Angriff des politisch-religiösen Radikalismus, aber auch die Krise der Repräsentation, das Schwinden der Demokratie im Inneren bestimmen die öffentliche Debatte. Der Glaube, dass der Prozess der Modernisierung die Demokratie notwendig befördern und unaufhaltsam verbreiten werde, hat sich als trügerisch erwiesen. Die Zukunft der Demokratie steht nicht länger außer Frage. Sie bedarf der Kritik und des Plädoyers. Das Buch enthält die überarbeiteten und erweiterten Beiträge einer Vortragsreihe der Carl Friedrich von Siemens Stiftung in München, die große Beachtung fand. Angesehene Wissenschaftler und führende Intellektuelle analysieren den Zustand der repräsentativen Demokratie in Deutschland wie der Mehrebenendemokratie in Europa und entwickeln konkrete Reformvorschläge. Sie untersuchen die Fragen, wie entscheidungsfähig Demokratien sind und was die amerikanische Demokratie so außergewöhnlich macht. Sie behandeln die globalen Dimensionen der Demokratie und blicken in prospektiver Absicht auf den «Arabischen Frühling» zurück. Sie unterziehen geläufige Missverständnisse der Kritik, desgleichen die Illusion des demokratischen Geschichtsglaubens. Mit Beiträgen von Sabino Cassese, Dan Diner, Horst Dreier, Egon Flaig, Friedrich Wilhelm Graf, Heinrich Meier, Herfried Münkler, Dietrich Murswiek, Thomas L. Pangle und Peter Sloterdijk. In der Edition der Carl Friedrich von Siemens Stiftung ist von den Herausgebern erschienen: «Politik und Religion. Zur Diagnose der Gegenwart» (2017).

Abstract:
Menschen waren sich nie genug. Seit sie anfingen, sich von anderen Tieren zu unterscheiden, erfanden sie Werkzeuge und schließlich große Maschinen, um Naturgewalten zu bändigen, Ressourcen besser zu nutzen und das Leben komfortabler zu gestalten. Was man heute Enhancement nennt, setzt also nur eine uralte Tradition fort. Um den Anforderungen des Alltags- und Arbeitslebens gewachsen zu sein, werden zunehmend auch Drogen zur Leistungssteigerung eingesetzt. Und Gehirn-Maschinen-Interfaces gehören in manchen Bereichen der Medizin bereits zu den Behandlungsoptionen. Doch welche Menschenbilder, Perfektionsansprüche und seelischen Konflikte transportiert das Enhancement? Soll die Psychotherapie bei dieser Entwicklung behilflich sein? Oder ist es Zeit für eine Vollbremsung? Diese Fragen beleuchten die AutorInnen mithilfe der Kritischen Theorie und mit psychoanalytischem Instrumentarium aus interdisziplinärer Perspektive. Sie zeigen die unterschiedlichen Facetten und Chancen, aber auch die Illusionen und Begrenzungen des Enhancements sowie dessen untrennbare Verschränkung mit der Logik des Marktes. Mit Beiträgen von Bernd Ahrbeck, Steffen Elsner, Kristina Flint, Gesa Foken, Thomas Fuchs, Christoph Henning, Joachim Küchenhoff, Elfriede Löchel, Jens Paulsen, Clara Schließler und Henning Teschke.
