Power of (Mis)Perception

At a conference yesterday, I finally got to watch a really great video that I had often heard about but never seen. I was pleased to find out that it is actually on the Web (isn’t everything?).  Go here and click on the "View the ‘basketball’ video" link – it may take time to load – it’s about 7.5 MB – but, trust me, it’s worth the wait, even if you’re not that much into basketball.  Be sure to follow the instructions in terms of what to look out for in the video.

Once you’ve looked at the video, then go here and look at some of the resources to learn some of the lessons of the video.  It’s a great example of "the more we focus, the less we see".  Unfortunately, I can’t say too much more about it or else I will spoil the experience.
