It's all in your brain: PAREIDOLIA!







































Seeing faces in inanimate objects and patterns is known as face pareidolia

Response originates in the frontal cortex and travels to the visual cortex
Findings suggest humans have evolved to recognize facial shapes due to their importance in social interactions
