Kinetic Depth Perception

Famous quotes containing the words kinetic, depth and/or perception:

    All my stories are webs of style and none seems at first blush to contain much kinetic matter.... For me “style” is matter.
    Vladimir Nabokov (1899–1977)

    A little philosophy inclineth man’s mind to atheism, but depth in philosophy bringeth men’s minds about to religion.
    Francis Bacon (1561–1626)

    What, then, is the basic difference between today’s computer and an intelligent being? It is that the computer can be made to see but not to perceive. What matters here is not that the computer is without consciousness but that thus far it is incapable of the spontaneous grasp of pattern—a capacity essential to perception and intelligence.
    Rudolf Arnheim (b. 1904)
