Index Entry
Motion:
“The sense of motion is produced by an overlapping continuity of afterimages of a plurality of optically tunable separate and sequentially occurring electromagnetic frequency events just as music is produced for the hearing by a metrically momentumed sequence of both separate and resonantly overlapped sound frequency notes. Motion is visual music made possible by the spontaneous retention in the brain of a series of separate still picture frames of our separate sense experiences scanned and reviewed in the brain at a vastly accelerated sequence rate. Our brain discovers that each successive electromagnetic picture is just a little different from the ones before and our dawning awareness of that increasing difference constitutes our motion sense.”
