Filling-In: From Perceptual Completion to Cortical Reorganization
Pessoa
The best example of filling-in involves the retinal blind spot, which is perceptually "filled-in" with background colour. While filling-in is generally associated with visual processes, the view promoted in this book is that some forms of filling-in are related to processes in the auditory and somatosensory modalities, as well as the motor cortex.
