What is retinal Disparity
Images received in the left and right eyes are slightly different.

The purpose is to create pespective.

(see: eye convergence)

What is FUNCTIONAL FIXEDNESS?
What is it called (bias) when one can only think of a problem from a certain angle?

E.g. trying to tighten a screwdriver without a screwdriver.

My way of solving this problem: let’s look at this a different way.
