- Project Question: If an artist portrays someone's face on a canvas flawlessly, does that mean that you and him see that person the same way? Do our minds all think exactly alike? Does each person see the world the way i see it? The brain interprets what we see but all brains could possibly interpret the world differently, correct? what if each brain interpreted the world differently? what if each person is living in their very own fantasy land created by their minds?
- Project Due Date: asap
- Project Status: I am just starting

Hello flemin25!
Your question is very intriguing. I think you could have a good science fair project, but you would have to poll a large group of people, perhaps 30+. The art question is on the right track, but I would suggest doing something a little more on the lines of: If I ask 30 people to look at a piece of abstract art and tell me what they see, what is the largest percentage of the same answer? Basically you would find a cool (not very famous) abstract piece of art, have no one know what each others answers are, and ask them what they see. If one says "Lily" (flower) and "Rose" (flower) group them together because they are of the same genre. Hope I helped you!

One more thing to add: a group email is a good idea! Make sure to instruct people to NOT reply all, and select a group of various different types of people (Creative, mathamatic, teenagers, kids, young adults, adults, friends, family members, etc.) so that you better represent the larger population.
