Is Seeing Believing? How Neural Oscillations Influence our Conscious Experience, Press Office, University of Bologna
A research group from the University of Bologna discovered the first causal evidence of the double dissociation between what we see and what we believe we see: these two different mechanisms derive from the frequency and amplitude of alpha oscillations.
A new study published in the journal Current Biology shows that this is not the case: despite their usual strong correlation, the perceptual accuracy of visual information and its subjective interpretation use separate neural mechanisms that can be manipulated independently of each other.
Thus, it was possible to isolate the two key processes occurring when we see something. One is more “objective” and related to the observation accuracy, the other is more “subjective” and related to the internal representation of the sensory event, i.e. the level of confidence in identifying what has been seen.
More specifically, researchers observed that the process related to the “objective” sampling of external reality is associated to the speed of alpha oscillations. Faster oscillations resulted in more accurate responses by participants.
“The results show that perception is a discrete rather than continuous process. Each alpha oscillations cycle represents a sampling cycle of sensory information, thus the faster the oscillations, the more information can be gathered, which in turn increases accuracy.”
“In this study we demonstrate that the ability to perceive accurately (delivered by the speed of alpha oscillations) interacts with the confidence of the response (delivered by the amplitude of alpha oscillations). Thus, our subjective representation is continuously updated to better match our objective performance.”

REALITY CHECK
“We lean forward in the seat of our soul trying to see thru all the planetary fluctuations. We drift into unchartered waters thru an ocean of verbal wreckage. As regeneration increases in thrust for the human race, movement forward is vital. By standing still for any amount of time in thought or deed, one may get water-logged in the dimensional bog.”

BREAKING CYCLES
Neither linear or conceptual thinking can ride the wave of consciousness alone. Every impression reflects upon its own witness, a position made symbolically apparent through an endless cycle of change. Fluctuations derive turbulence along with the potential for harmony and balance at every scale and within every context.
All is change/energy (CE). All is vibration. The wave and the particle merely afford a contextual presence, i.e. state of being, to be symbolically observed, interpreted, transformed and modified. That's what design is. That's what design does.
potential adjective [attributive] having or showing the capacity to become or develop into something in the future: a two-pronged campaign to woo potential customers. noun 1 latent qualities or abilities that may be developed and lead to future success or usefulness: a young broadcaster with great potential | the potentials of the technology were never wholly controllable. • (often potential for/to do something) the possibility of something happening or of someone doing something in the future: pesticides with the potential to cause cancer | the crane operator's clear view reduces the potential for accidents. 2 Physics the quantity determining the energy of mass in a gravitational field or of charge in an electric field.
presence noun. the state or fact of existing, occurring, or being present in a place or thing: the presence of chlorine in the atmosphere | the memorial was unveiled in the presence of 24 veterans | her presence still comforts me. • a person or thing that exists or is present in a place but is not seen: the monks became aware of a strange presence. • [in singular] a group of people, especially soldiers or police, stationed in a particular place: the US would maintain a presence in the Indian Ocean region. • the impressive manner or appearance of a person: Richard was not a big man but his presence was overwhelming | [in singular] : he has a real physical presence.
Growth in awareness is a matter of frequency and vibration. You resonate to that which you are attracted. Individual change is a matter of choice. We expand in consciousness by purposely applying our power of concentration into becoming more symbolically aware.
