=Facial Recocgnition= = =
 * higher order processing
 * cells in temporal lobe respond to faces
 * receive input about light, lines, angle, color, etc

[] = = == = = =Stereoscopic Vision=
 * eyes receiving slightly different inputs
 * the closer an object is, the more different the input about the object
 * the farther an object is, the more similar the input about the object
 * depth (third dimmension) emerges from neural network architechture- computed by the brain



=**Sound and Language Programming**=
 * hearing: ear cells code frequencies in pitch cells and waves travel down cochlea
 * point of greatest displacement on buslar membrane = frequency
 * language: brain computes word separation- not inherent in the sound stream
 * NETtalk: input cells coding for vectors- output phoneme
 * uses context of surrounding six letters
