| "WebVision" Great site for everything about vision - photochemistry, anatomy, and physiology. |
| Illusions and aftereffects by Dr. Michael Bach Awesome page! Start at the beginning - the one in the upper left of the table of icons at right - and try them all! Excellent excuse for constructive procrastination if you have lots of other work. |
| Receptive fields - nice visualizations of responses of center-surround receptive fields from Sinauer Associates |
| Lectures on vision by Dr. Jeremy Nathans Lectures 1A and 1B are on the structure and information processing in the vertebrate retina.Lecture 2 is about the neural and molecular mechanisms of color vision.Lecture 3 is about the evolution of 3-pigment color vision (i.e. the kind that only fish and old-world primates, such as humans, have). |
| Visual chemistry site From Rachel Casiday and Regina Frey, Department of Chemistry, Washington University St. Louis |
| Gary Matthews' neuroscience simulations Includes a receptive field mapping simulation. |
| Rotation aftereffect - making your "skin crawl" hypno.exe ( 48916 Bytes ) Save it to your hard drive and click on it to run. |
| "The Joy of Visual Perception," by Peter Kaiser See especially the "Fun things in vision" and "Color/Color vision" entries. |
