cały akapit z książki Magicians exploit several psychological and neural principles to focus your spotlight of attention. Recall that when you see an object that is new, bright, fl ashy, or moving— think of that white dove fluttering out of a top hat— your attention is driven by increased activity in your ascending sensory system, which simply means that salient information from your senses fl ows up into your brain. It arrives from the bottom and travels up. You are strongly drawn to the object. Neuroscientists call it sensory capture. Psychologists call it exogenous attentional capture. Magicians call it passive misdirection.
