:
A class of stimuli we developed seems to selectively activate the fast, contour system. This stimulus is formed by adjacent fields of black and white spots, which flicker in counterphase at 15 Hz, on a uniform gray field.
:
The surface characteristics (temporal phase relationship of the spots) can only be seen when the stimulus is significantly slower (flicker <7 Hz).

....featural and configural information is encoded explicitly.

:
in normal (upright) face processing, component and configural information is combined into a single holistic face representation.
:
An analytical similarity decision would mean that only component information is used to judge the similarity of faces.
:

Information of local features and relations between them is extracted in order to activate component and configural representations in the ventral stream.
