Every perceived object can be reframed as a phase of an act of perception - every event viewed as a process, or more acutely as an adverb. This goes further than Heidegger's "It rains", to an "It does, rainingly", or "It does, in a thing-like way" - whatever the thing happens to show as. When we see things in this way, as active processes, the mode of vision does not stop at the surface of the thing, at its appearance, but pervades our latent sense of the being of the thing, and of its composition as a compresence of parts in a whole. We are reminded that objects loom in a strange way, always seeming to move either closer in or further away, to recompose or discompose. Once we are installed in this process-mode of perception the flip of perspective where subject and object swap places becomes easier. The indeterminacy of the subject position is rendered obvious.
