Perception
“Perception refers to the interpretation of what we take in through our senses. In terms of optical illusions this means our eyes.”
Simply put, our brains are tricked into seeing something which may or may not be real.

In order to make sense of our world our brains try to see patterns or shapes that are recognizable. This principle is called
“grouping”.

After a Necker cube is perceived from one perspective, it naturally tends to change to the other in about 3 seconds.

• When you look at the top figure, your visual system will organize the elements into a box. The box will reverse, as in the Necker Cube illusion. The elements in the bottom figure have terminations and do not readily group into a box figure that shows reversals

When you look at the figure you will see either a vase or two faces. If you continue to look, the figure will appear to shift to the alternative organization
