Perception of space and movement - important features

Perception of space - one of the main problems of perception is the problem of localization. Determinate in perception of space the location of objects.

“One consequence of the loss of olfaction as an important medium of communication was an alteration in the relationship between humans [..] If humans had noses like rats, they would be forever tied to the full array of emotional shifts occurring in persons around them [..] The identity of anyone visiting a home and the emotional connotations of everything that took place in the home would be matters of public record so long as the smell persisted [..] To say the least, life would be much more involved and intense.”

The cocktail of surrounding reeks obscures  memories, because smell evokes much deeper memories than either vision or sound

There is no space independent of subjects.

The birds that flutter about, the squirrels hopping from branch to branch, or the cows grazing in the meadow, all remain permanently enclosed in the bubble that encloses their space. Only when we can vividly imagine this fact will we recognize in our own world the bubble that encloses each and every one of us on all sides. Then, we will see each of our fellow human beings as being enclosed in bubbles that effortlessly overlap one another because they are made up of subjective perception signs.
