Modèle pour un temple de la raison d’Éva Brandl présenté au Musée d’art contemporain de Montréal en 1987 constitue un bon exemple de ce type où l'artiste utilise une salle fermée et noire comme support de l'installation, salle dans laquelle le spectateur pénètrera et marchera à la rencontre du propos principal, qui consistera en l'occurrence dans l'installation de Brandl, en un temple monumental rappelant les hauts fourneaux d’Allemagne du XIXe siècle. L'expérience perceptuelle est d’abord très kinesthésique, puis le corps s’immobilise pour laisser l'appareil visuel prendre le relais, et enfin, le corps se déplace à nouveau au terme de la lecture de la scène nodale. 1, record 4, French, - installation%20nodale

L'installation-station. [...] Ce type d’installation oriente fortement le trajet du spectateur puisque celui-ci comprend dès son entrée dans l'œuvre que l'organisation de l'œuvre lui dicte un programme kinesthésique précis et séquentiel. En réalité, il s’agit ici d’un parcours par stations, par moments scéniques précis, représentés par des éléments isolés disposés sur les murs ou sur les parois de l'installation et qui vise à amener graduellement le spectateur au point culminant de l'œuvre.

Mes vœux de Annette Messager, de 1989, est typique dans ce sens. Le spectateur entre et se trouve immédiatement conscient que les petites sculptures/ex-voto disposées de part et d’autre sur les murs visent à le conduire inexorablement mais lentement au drame final de l’immense tondo fait de mini-photos encadrées de parties anonymes de corps humains. La tension perceptuelle est très grande dans ce type d’installation parce que le spectateur doit résister à l’envie d’accéder immédiatement au dénouement de l’œuvre (le fond) au détriment des données intermédiaires (tout ce qui précède, tient à distance et retarde l’appréhension du corps de l’œuvre). 1, record 6, French, - installation%2Dstation

L'installation a donc comme source et motivation essentielles un refus des artistes américains des années 70 à l'égard de l'œuvre objectale, c'est-à-dire à l'égard de cette surface bidimensionnelle que constitue le tableau devant lequel le spectateur se positionne sans toutefois être convié à participer kinesthésiquement. Jusqu'à nous, l'installation va se développer comme pratique qui remet en question le rapport sensible de l'être humain à l'objet, en donnant une extension perceptuelle au spectateur; dorénavant celui-ci sera plus qu'un «œil» devant l'œuvre(comme disait Greenberg), mais il sera invité à vivre une expérience polysensoriellement plus riche(kinesthésique, tactile, auditive, posturale, etc). 1, record 8, French, - installation

Color can dramatically influence the flavor perception of food. Food technologists often use various colored lights in their tasting sessions to mask the color of the foods being taste-paneled so tasters will make their acceptability judgments based on flavor rather than color. One study dramatically illustrates the influence of color on food acceptability ... In this study, panelists were offered a dinner of steak, peas and french fries abnormally colored but served under color-masked conditions. Panelists enjoyed the meals until normal lights were switched on. The appearance of blue steak, red peas and green french fries was so overwhelmingly objectionable to some of the panelists that they became ill. 2, record 11, English, - food%20acceptability

In addition to learning styles, there are two related concepts that deserve some attention: cognitive styles and thinking styles. So closely related are these concepts that they are often used interchangeably with some resulting confusion (Bonham, 1988a, 1999b; Keinholz, 1984). This is unfortunate since the terms are distinct and should be used with greater precision. Learning styles are the most inclusive and overarching in that they contain cognitive, affective, and physiological traits that indicate how learners perceive, interact with, and relate to the learning environment (Keefe, 1979). In short, learning styles include cognitive and thinking styles in addition to other dimensions such as personality and environmental traits. 3, record 14, English, - learning%20style
