Dear G and B, thank you and Haylee for participating.
i have produced a preliminary video of the experiment: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vVMYMYM7kEM&index=11&list=PL4y5WtsvtduqNW0AKlSsOdea3Hl1X_v-S i hope you don't mind being presented as a computer-generated voice :) Please advise whether the cartoon images i derived from your narrative explanations are adequately representative of the mental images you had when you performed the experiment. i received 3 replies to my enquiry, with 3 different perceptions, each of which i regard as equally meritworthy and informative, even if they lead to 3 different conclusions (something i had not expected to happen). I plan to make a follow-up video which will discuss how your perceptions and those of Hajin Lee 3P might be automated, *and the findings of a computer program tsume-go analysis if anyone can provide one using their own program.* neuroscientists stick electrodes into monkeys' brains and make MRIs of human ones to discover how the mind sees, but i think verbal protocols [1] are equally useful even if they do not permit the investigator to see into the subconscious of the subject, where most of the information processing in "blink" fast perception [2,3] takes place. As [4] notes, "There is empirical evidence that Go masters come up with the solutions without any discursive thinking, their eyes fixate on the vital point under 300 milliseconds [9]. Some sort high-level pattern matching is done by the master players.... [9] Atsushi Yoshikawa and Yasuki Saito. Perception in tsumego under 4 seconds time pressure.
