Remember when the phrase “WYSIWYG” was first introduced? I do. I was working at IBM at the time working as part of the “DisplayWriter” team (this was the a dedicated wordprocessing machine). I remember hearing and learning the terms WYSIWYG (what you see is what you get) and “ergonomic”. That was back in 1984.

Joel Pearson and his team from Vanderbilt University share some of their recent research on how the human brain perceives images. Read to learn more find out his interesting results that suggest that what you imagine is what you get…WYIIWYG ??

Hmmm…fascinating. Take a look for yourself at this slide show Mental Images Are Like Pictures
