Caliban: Lo, now, lo!
Here comes a spirit of his, and to torment me
For bringing the wood in slowly.

The account of perception that’s starting to emerge is what we might call the “brain’s best guess” theory of perception: perception is the brain’s best guess about what is happening in the outside world. The mind integrates scattered, weak, rudimentary signals from a variety of sensory channels, information from past experiences, and hard-wired processes, and produces a sensory experience full of brain-provided color, sound, texture, and meaning. We see a friendly yellow Labrador bounding behind a picket fence not because that is the transmission we receive but because this is the perception our weaver-brain assembles as its best hypothesis of what is out there from the slivers of information we get. Perception is inference.

dollsome, sweet and lovely. I especially like the Mary voice, which captures all her prickly awesomeness.oltha_heri, or, the one where Mary and Lavinia run off to Paris. This is fantastic and just the world I can imagine Downton blending into. In the comments, this quickly (d)evolves into inventing a universe in which all the Crawley sisters + Lavinia + Branson + Matthew are eventually hanging out in Paris together, in complicated configurations. This conversation then inspired oltha_heri to write The Truth of Tom Branson's Notated Papers, which has me giggling madly. spacingmontreal_feed at 05:00pm on 22/02/2012

GOOD asks "can a font help a city make a comeback"? Designers D.J. Trischler and Jeremy Dooler are trying to do just that. They believe their font, "Chatype", to be the first of its kind - a grassroots font developed specifically for city branding purposes. The geometric slab serif draws on local visual references including Cherokee script, Coca Cola's font, the typeface of the local train, the city's industrial past and its cluster of technological startups.
