I wouldn't dismiss our perception as lacking majesty :) That would be very depressing. Subjectivity aside, however, you're right – what we experience is determined in part by the constrains of our nervous system and perception organs (remember the rapidly spinning fan blades that look like a disk?). But, this is just the conditions on life, a fact to which we need to adjust, for we cannot change it.

It's also worth pointing out that for humans, this is where science comes in :)

The slow motion videos illustrate very convincingly that we are always omitting data. I love them for that. One cannot watch them and not be persuaded into a sense of how unavoidably probabilistic our inferences are, as well as into a sense of wonderment and curiosity. They are both desirable responses, because they are key to sanity.
