Are our senses deceiving us...blip blip blip...

So we've finished off sense perception and I've left you all wondering whether or not our reality is 'real'.  I forgot to tell you that you are to check out the Matrix site I had you copy the address down for.  For those who are interested, here's a list of various sources that're out there to explore how our senses and perception can create different realities:

Film
Memento
The Matrix
The Truman Show
Dark City
The Thirteenth Floor
TV
The Prisoner (1960s tv show - brilliant!!!)
Lost
Star Trek 'The Menagerie'
Quantum Leap
On the Net
Simulated Reality Wikipedia article: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Simulated_reality
Simulism Wikipedia article: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Simulism#Precedents_in_popular_culture
Games
World of Warcraft (video game)
The Sims (2 and 3)
Books
Permutation City by Greg Egan
Time out of Joint by Phillip K. Dick

So here's your blog homework for next week.  Answer the following in your blogs:
1)  Which of the problems of perception limit human knowledge the most and the least? Why? Give examples.
2)  How might humans overcome these problems? What forms of technology do we use already? Do these forms have their limitations also? What other ways might we use?
