VISUAL ORDER 14 aka: Gestalt laws of grouping

first proposed by Gestalt psychologists to account for the observation that humans naturally perceive objects as organized patterns and objects. Gestalt psychologists argued that these principles exist because the mind has an innate disposition to perceive patterns in the stimulus based on certain rules.

some neato really swell commentary about the process and or finished product would be nice to put in here buddies. right in here add a couple of well-crafted thoughts ok that’s more than three sentence long ending with the blog url/tag of this project.
