Look at some object from different angles (a coin, coffee cup, a book). Look at its top, bottom, edge, front, and back. What you literally see is a series of different visual impressions, each with a different shape and perhaps other aspects that change as the object is rotated. Now, suppose that you were unable to relate these different impressions together to see them as multiple aspects of the same object. What would your world be like if you simply experienced a succession of phenomena without being able to synthesize them into the experience of meaningful objects?
