I can totally see where this could happen. I find when I get frustrated or angry I often have a shift in perception and in the middle of the most inappropriate situations wish to begin drawing. Hmmm.... when I do math, I often get frustrated too... anyway, interesting observation, I am going to play with this. That’s really intense. I can totally see where this could happen.

My vision sees the world around me or a painting with more vibrancy. Even the frequency of color is more apparent and the colors are more intense. Op-art may have the same effect of seeing a movement or vibration due to the frequency of colors placed next to one another. Doing math and then viewing art speeds up this process for me so that I don’t really have to wait or force the phenomenon to occur. Does anyone else notice changes in perception after working with mathematical equations? I’ve always found that after practicing math and solving complex equations for hours my eyes change.
