When you look at it, you literally see a map of the world. Therefore, when something in the field of view is in a certain area of ​​space, a section on the cortex that represents this area of ​​space is immediately visible, it is activated. And if this object moves, there is a topographic mapping on which it reflects neighboring cells. It's almost like having the Cartesian coordinates of the real world, which corresponds to the polar coordinates in the visual cortex. You can literally follow the retina through the thalamus and into the visual cortex, as one point in space is reflected at the point of the visual cortex. So far so good. But he continues: This mapping is really useful if you want to interact with certain parts of the visual cortex, but there are many areas of vision, and the deeper you dive into the visual cortex, the foggier it becomes, and this topographical representation begins to break down. In the brain, processes take place at a variety of levels, and visual perception shows it perfectly. We look at the world, which is represented by a physical three-dimensional world somewhere from the outside - here is a cup, and you see it - but your eyes see only a handful of pixels. And when you look at the visual cortex, you see 20-40 different cards. V1 is the first area on which edges and colors are marked.
