Line 60:
* [[Radio Voice]]<br />You can tell the voice is coming from the radio because it's slightly distorted.
* [[Repeating So the Audience Can Hear]]<br />We can't hear the other end of his telephone conversation, but that's okay because he'll repeat it back for us.
* [[See No Evil, Hear No Evil]]<br />If it isn't visible, it isn't audible either.
* [[Soft Water]]<br />Why shouldn't water be soft? It ''looks'' pretty soft!

{{examples}}
=== Unsorted Examples ===
== [[Anime]] and [[Manga]] ==
 
== [[Anime]] ==
* ''[[Detective Conan]]'' often has people whose actions the audience is suppose to know, but whose specific appearance is unknown to the other characters, rendered as all-black silhouettes even in places where there would be no shadows (even outdoors in the middle of the day).
 
Line 102 ⟶ 101:
* [[Doctor Strange]]'s [[Astral Projection|astral self]] is represented by a 'ghosted' version of himself with various other visual effects. Whether other characters can see him is indicated by dialogue. He also has visual indications when spellcasting, usually in the form of a [[Power Glows|glow around his hands]].
 
== [[Fan FictionWorks]] ==
* ''[[My Immortal]]'' is blissfully unaware of the Rule of Perception, as a result of which characters often seem to materialise out of nowhere.
 
== [[Film]] ==

** Allegedly. How do you know the output and whether it has changed [[Fridge Logic|unless you measure it?]]
*** [[SchroedingersSchrödinger's Cat]] strikes again.
**** [[Stephen Hawking|I'll have my gun ready]].
** More accurately would be to say that the outcome is not determined until observed. Until then, it is simultaneously all outcomes at the same time.
