As i type this post, I am listening to the Ugandan Artiste Exodus... This crossed my mind a couple of days ago and thought it worthwhile to share my thoughts... "So many times, what you are looking at is not what you actually see" There is something about vision, seeing and perception. They are related and can stand independent of each other in different contexts. I was walking passed the flagship Selfridges Store, and you would know that the store has very creative and interestingly arranged merchandise on their shop windows.
