1. How does Sacks describe conscious perception as it relates to frames?

Sacks states that conscious perception is not fluid as most would think it to be; in actuality, it is made up of many "discrete frames" that usually make up a movie.  These frames are then blended together to give us the smooth continuity that we think we experience. This means that smooth movement is actually an illusion.

2. How could you apply this concept to controlling the pace at which your viewer experiences your videos?

Using this frame method gives the artist a lot of control over the speed at which the viewer experiences the video.  Longer frames create the illusion that the image is moving slowly, while frames with images that change at a fast rate indicate a faster speed.  This technique will come in hand when working with stop-motion video.  The artist has so much control over the pace of the video through the rate of change in the pictures. 

3. What does the power of intense attention have to do with the rate at which we experience time? Give an example.

Intense attention slows down the duration of time of each individual frame.  This makes the experience seem as though it is occurring in slow motion.  This is what happens when athletes are "in the zone," or even when there are emergencies.  Intense concentration makes the person focus more on the individual frames. 

4. Does the description of the power of intense attention recall concepts of previous articles? Give an example.

The power of intense attention directly relates to article "Into the Zone."  This article described the type of meditative state that removes you from the stress and pressure of the situation at hand.  This is the type of concentration that slows down frames to create the illusion of time passing slowly.
