The processes include:
the generation of energy by some external object or event
the transmission of the energy through the space between the event and the observer
the reception and processing of the energy by the observer's sensory receptors
the transmission of signals to the brain, where still more processing takes place
presumably, the end result is the formation of a representation in the brain of what is going on in the external world.
