I can try to find the specific Don Draper source image i used for my little experiment. Or even better, choose a different source image you have, post a rough sketch of how you think the regions should be laid out for it to be a convincing WPAP style, and then include the sketch and the source image here as attachments, and we can try some automated experiments using them. Any chance you are up for doing a quick sketch of how you think the regions should be laid out for that particular image? And then the regions are whatever the artist chose to draw in.Īs to your specific comments.
#WPAP STYLE HOW TO#
And if someone is willing to do the sketch themselves like is shown in the tutorial video he pointed out, then i think all of my comments on how to automate things from that point on are quite valid. Let's be clear, I don't think my quick automatic experiments are the perfect solutions to what Alex ultimately wants to do.īut i think they are in the ballpark.
#WPAP STYLE FREE#
So feel free to start a new forum thread on that topic if anyone wants to discuss it further.

As opposed to continuing it here in this forum thread, which is really focused on WPAP art and how to reproduce it. We should probably start a new forum topic on visual models and how they could be used in studio artist if anyone wants to continue this visual model discussion. And they are not using the visual cortex to do so (at least not area V1). The people with blindsight can recognize images, but they are not conscious of doing so. It is thought that the reason they are still able to subconsciously recognize the contents of the pictures they are shown is due to this older secondary visual pathway.īlindsight is also interesting because it give clues to where visual consciousness might actually physically reside in the brain. The cause of their blindness is damage to area V1 in their visual cortex (not to their eyes). They claim they can't see anything, but the researchers just tell them to take a guess at the answer to the visual recognition task they are given, and they statistically do much better than they should, since they are technically blind. There is a phenomena known as blindsight, where people who are technically blind actually perform much better at visual recognition tests than would make sense. So, that might be involved in the 'snake' detection scenario you brought up. And the speed of that older primitive visual system is faster.

But there is a secondary one through a much older part of the brain that does not involve the visual cortex. The brain actually has multiple pathways for visual recognition The primary one is through the visual cortex. We're getting a little off topic here, but i did want to mention one thing about your 'snake' comment and visual models.
