As for how the 3 second rule was originally arrived at. It's a good question, but I guess I would say the number of seconds is arbitrary. Whatever number they picked would end up being the perfect number in other contexts. The perfect relation isn't innate. (1/2)

The relation is parasitic on our aesthetic engagement with film. The more we read purpose or design into the mundane (by anthropomorphizing or by picking up on someone's actual intent), the more we provide ourselves with normative standards.
