related.
The relation beteen Apophenia and Pareidolia.

Apophenia is the the tendency to see patterns that do not actually exist. It is
the unmotivated seeing of connections accompanied by a specific experience
of an meaningfulness, while the misperception of patterns in random data is
called pareidolia, where a common human experience is to perceive faces in
inanimate objects.
Definations of each one may be stated differentially yet the essence and the
substance of the fundamental concepts is same. There are several reasons of
these phenomena and one of them is the human expectation.
Pareidolia can also be a product of people's expectations, says neuroscientist
Sophie Scott, of University College London.
