This video presents the same text shown beside it, spoken and on screen. It adds nothing the text does not say.

State

Perception is the organization and interpretation of sensory signals into a meaningful experience.

Watch for

Perception can occur without accurate sensation and can fail with accurate sensation. They are separable.
