Reflection

I always think that optical illusions are really cool and I know that it has something to do with our mind. After this project I know better how our eyes and our mind trick us to see certain things, like faces. Personally I believe this phenomenon is also related to another one that I often experience in life. When I buy something, e.g. a new bag, I always notice people on the street carrying the same bag as me more often than before. The explanation of this may be similar to why we see faces everywhere.

Also, since we know that faces, especially patterns that resemble faces draw attention, we could use that in mass media advertising. For example, a company can arrange its products to be like a face and catch more eyeballs.
