Spatial Puzzles (Equivocal Space) (42)
Equivocal Space
-an ambiguous space in which it is hard to distinguish the foreground from the background
-your perception seems to alternate from one to the other
-the mirror like image makes it hard for the viewer to see what it the background/foreground
-the transparent sails are very confusing! you can't quite tell which boat is in the back or in the front

Amplified Perspective (40)
Illusion of Space by Linear Perspective (39)
Illusion of Space by Atmospheric Perspective (38)
Aerial/Atmospheric Perspective
-the perception of less distinct contours and value contrasts as forms recede into the background
-colors appear to be washed out in the distance or take on the color of the atmosphere
-"atmospheric perspective can be simply described: as colors go into the distance, two things happen. First, they become cooler (the atmosphere colors them), and they get lighter in value. A dark shadow in the distance is never as dark as the shadow at your feet"
