Translating Gestalt grouping principles from form and music into the temporal domain of visual motion.
Motion Gestalt is a theoretical framework that explains how perceptual organization gives coherence to visual motion.
Why Motion Gestalt?
During my doctoral research, I became interested in how perceptual organization continues beyond static visual arrangements. Although Gestalt psychology provides a powerful account of spatial grouping, it offers only limited explanation for how perceptual organization unfolds in dynamic visual environments. Motion Gestalt extends Gestalt grouping principles into the temporal domain, providing a theoretical framework for understanding visual motion.
