Product Information

Previous research has shown that the more a letter is rotated away from a person, the longer it takes them to work out the answer.

You need to be empathetic enough to see the world from his perspective using his worldview, even if you disagree with it. Only then can you show him that using a different filter will not only make his life better but also the people around him.Think about it: Have you experienced a flurry of emotions or rush of adrenalin when you’ve observed someone else engaged in an activity? This is because we are empathic beings by our very nature. Our social contexts and methods of learning often work to remove this inbuilt empathy to a large extent or, at the very least, tame it. But when you engage with the people you design for, this wall starts to break down and you become more conscious about your levels of empathy, especially if you keep an open mind. The phenomenon could explain why adults know where to hold a book so a child can read it, they said.

In fact, all of us have a narrative. It’s the story we tell ourselves about how we got here, what we’re building, what our urgencies are. So, no matter what, practice, practice, practice to up your empathy skills game. Empathy isn’t just for users; it’s also for stakeholders, and teammates. And it’s quite rare to have someone say, “I’m a selfish narcissist, and everyone should revolve around me merely because I said so.” Many participants in the Dreamachine reported increased wellbeing, and the University of Sussex is developing a new research programme to explore how the technology underpinning the experience could form novel interventions for mental health conditions, including depression and anxiety.

Professor Anil Seth adds: “The Perception Census has the potential to rewrite our understanding of how we each experience a unique world, and to help society as a whole build new platforms for empathy and communication by embedding a recognition that the way we see things might not be the way they are, and that we all experience our shared reality in richly diverse ways. The Census will be an invaluable resource - providing us with a new map to this fascinating hidden landscape.”

Tens of thousands of people around the world are taking part in The Perception Census, an ongoing scientific study aiming to uncover the fascinating but invisible ways that our minds are each unique - making it the largest study of its kind, and the first major citizen science project in the world into perceptual diversity. When I am confronted with an opposing worldview, my initial reaction is to convince them that they are wrong. The automatic responses of the lizard brain takes over the moment it senses a threat. UNBOXED: Creativity in the UK is funded and supported by the four governments of the UK and is commissioned and delivered in partnership with Belfast City Council, Creative Wales and EventScotland.Participants in the study, published in journal Current Biology, were asked whether a rotated letter was positioned the right way around or a mirrored view. How do you view the world? – We asked people how much they agreed or disagreed with different statements about perception and consciousness. Questions which had not previously been asked to a public audience on such a large scale.
