    Listening to the sound also gives us an idea of distance. May be similar thing is happening with light also. May be the sixth sense(intuition) of our mind is working.

    What are you talking about? Of course there is a time lag. It is easily measured.
    It does take time to process it, so your point is moot.

    What makes you think there is no evidence of latency in recalling a memory?

    oh? How long does it take to reconstruct from light data what you believe you are seeing?

    Imagine standing on top of a mountain over looking a city , ocean and say forest with the moon rising and the sun setting . How long does it take to create this visual masterpiece?
    And then do it continuously as you walk down from your vantage point.

    Alternatively take someone unfamiliar to the view up to that mountain top blindfolded and then take the blind fold off.... how long does it take their brains to accomplish such a massive task?

    Even at a push with out considering light intensity ( glare) adaptation, I would estimate less than .25 of a second. How is this possible?

    Science is forced to say that we are constantly recreating by way of reconstruction what we see. Is their evidence to support such an incredible claim of recreation?
    ( in a way that most of 8billion individual people would find a high degree of consensus on)

    It's not possible. We don't see.

    How is it possible that my toe nails continue to come out from my toes? I cut them and more comes out. My toes aren't that big and yet toe nail has been coming out for my entire life.

    It's just too complicated. Wait a minute, I'll bet God is doing it. That's the simplest explanation. What is God, where did God come from, was God born, is he going to die, who made God?

    Who knew God was so complicated? Now I'm confused.

    Why use a God to make up for lousy human theoretics? ( and insufficient follow through using the scientific method to support a claim?)

    How about, instead of pulling stuff out of your ... imagination, how about you get some facts.

    Until then, you have no argument at all.

    That's your argument? OK.

    Have you looked up the latency of visual processing and memory recall?

    Why don't you do that and get back to us.

    Seeing as there is a terrible lacking of evidence to support this bizarre claim that we somehow reconstruct our world view all the time I propose a simple scientific experiment.
    Take a number of humans up on top of a small mountain blindfolded, that they has never seen or been told about beforehand ( a blind study! excuse the pun!)), and measure the time it takes for them to reconstruct and recreate their visual field of view after taking the blindfold off.
    Then if you wish and have time, work out the time it takes for them to comprehend what they has allegedly reconstructed/recreated.

    Should prove rather enlightening... ( excuse the pun!)

    If I am not mistaken Latency of Visual Processing (LVP) is relevant to what you theoretically do with what you have recreated and reconstructed and not much to do with the actual alleged reconstruction and recreating in itself.

    agrees!
    we have a problem then with the theory that leads to this impossibility? Yes?

    No. QQ - as no-one here has nailed it to your satisfaction, why not engage with genuine experts? A quick search and I found e.g.
    https://ecvp.org/
    http://www.ub.edu/ecvp/
    https://ecvp.org/2015/talks.html
    https://ecvp.org/2015/speakers.html

    And other such scholarly bodies are out there. A bit of ferreting on your part and I'm sure you will soon be conversing directly with bods that can help you. Or maybe you can enlighten them! In theory anyway. Please do report back any stunning new insights. Insights - get it - hahaha.

    gosh... thanks for that! Those links may prove useful some day...meanwhile "be satisfied" and "content" knowing what you believe you know....as I am...

    Is that a reference to

    Hands knees and boomps a daisy piano singalong frequently heard years ago in the pubs in London?

    If not I have no idea what you mean

    Hands, Knees And Boomps A Daisy lyrics

    Hands, knees
    and boomps-a-daisy
    I like a bustle that bends

    Hands, knees
    and boomps-a-daisy
    what is a boomp
    between friends

    Hands, knees
    Oh, don't be lazy
    let's make the party a wow

    Now then, hands, knees
    and boomps-a-daisy
    turn to your partner
    and bow, bow-wow

    Hands, knees
    and boomps-a-daisy
    I like a bustle that bends

    Hands, knees
    and boomps-a-daisy
    what is a boomp
    between friends

    I can see how boredom could lead to insanity (or quackery).
