Psychological Gestalt

Psychological Gestalt refers to the idea that our minds naturally organize sensory information into meaningful groups or patterns, rather than just reacting to individual elements. This concept, from Gestalt psychology, emphasizes that perception is a holistic process—our brain tends to see the whole picture and recognize relationships, patterns, and structures. For example, when we see a set of stars, we might perceive a constellation, not just random points. The Gestalt approach helps explain how we interpret complex visual information quickly and efficiently by focusing on overall organization rather than isolated details.
