Brain is filling in and perceiving something not actually there in the environment illusion. Perceptual disjunction: brain forgets your fingers are crossed and feels 2 noses. Touch nose with the tip of both fingers. Brain has forgotten to account that your fingers are crossed brain makes it seem like there"s something unique on each side of the fingers. Fingers aren"t typically crossed feels something that isn"t actually there illusion. Mcgurk effect: visual input changes what you hear.
