Attentional Hierarchy
n. the selective consciousness resulting from a narrowing and ranking of experiential variables.
A Soma Literate attention notes that hierarchy in any temporal design is proven in the arrangement of attentional variables in the performative moment. Where the concept deserving attention is often assumed to be fixed, as though one just sees or perceives the obvious content in front of them, in reality, our hierarchy of attention is regularly both a default disposition and exceedingly malleable with appropriate skill and priming.
For a discussion of default disposition see Temporal Relativity and Willful Performance.
For priming see Range–Vision.
