	The objective of this workshop is to gather a group of investigators who are interested in building theories of the visual system and want to identify hard but important questions in vision are not being commonly asked, or widely discussed, and even less pursued experimentally or theoretically. This will be a working workshop. To set the general approach, a limited number of opening presentations on important, underaddressed capabilities of the visual system, current theoretical cul-de-sacs, and other issues which should be under consideration in the construction of any working theory of vision. The majority of the time will be attendees will then be expected to participate in compiling an outline of visual functions, the importance, the level of current understanding, who is doing experimental or theoretical work relevant to that area. When this document is later cleaned up it can serve as a map for students or others interested in informing themselves or working in particular areas.
