Check your understanding: What is the blind spot?

I found out very important moments in your videos! I study Buddism and I think that physiology and psychology help in the study of philosophy much deeper. Thanks a lot!
Best video!!! Good, slow explanation, giving time to process all the new information. I want to make such videos in my language in the future (Bulgarian), because these types of informative educational videos at university level are non-existent and books don't do a great job at explaining something this graphical. Thank you!
To my mind (pun intended), this is a very good description of how a certain bandwidth of frequencies out there in the cosmic -- dare I say, holographic -- soup are processed by eye and brain parts attuned to react to specific measurements like color type, light amount, and so forth. And so the whole thing hums along inside the dark cave of my head as described. However, this feels like the map and not the actual road. Where's the image? Why, when I dream, when my sensory input valves (i.e., my eyeballs) and its corresponding processing is shut off, do I "see" images in my dream consciousness?
