Our human vision relates to gravity- in other words, whether we fall on the ground or not," as Virilio says. If we consider that our perception of reality is connected to weight, gravity interferes with our perception. Movement is nothing but a fostered lack of balance.
P. Virilio, L'Espace crtique (Paris: Editios Christian Bourgeois, 1984) p. 52.

One may say that gravity influence our sensoria and so perception and experience.
Vertical or horizonatal line, balance, up and down, rising and falling, are the concepts evolved as fundamental definitions of the relationship between body and gravity.
