Notes from the Underground Part Four — Knowing Enough About Seeing To Let
I will also present another option, a smaller head that will move based on the pattern of scanning, unlike the previous one, which remains stationary. (This will become clearer when viewing the QuickTime movies.)
If we pay attention to how our eyes scan the face, we will notice that they do so in patterns that are fairly revealing: for example, I may come back to the tip of the nose far more often than I would go to the left eye. So, the "tune" I may compose with my scanning would be something like: D-E-D-C-D-E-D-etc.
This "tune" could be called the musical equivalent of our ("my") experience of our ("my") own pattern of scanning.
In this example, the head is taken for granted and stays in the centre of the vision while the attention moves around from scanning point to scanning point.

D-E-D-C-D-E-D
