Subliminal messages in LF

[Maris Rusis]

Subliminal? See Rorschach Ink Blot test. The viewer may interrogate the picture but the picture may also unveil the viewer.

[Peter Collins]

If "subliminal" is "below the threshold of sensation or consciousness," per Kirk's post, how can anyone know that there is subliminal content in an image?

That's the point, isn't it.

Psychological suggestion below subject's observational threshold.

If "subliminal" is "below the threshold of sensation or consciousness," per Kirk's post, how can anyone know that there is subliminal content in an image?

Short answer [in a German accent] – the mind knows more than what is on a conscious level.

That is, the whole iceberg represents the mind, not just its tip.

But a healthy critical attitude can bring into the conscious part of the mind what might have existed only in the more subliminal regions.

I had a friend, a retired English professor.

He was born on his dining table, that he still possessed, in his greystone mansion.

It was filled with obelisks.

He sold me his cherry 1972 Buick for $1. He gave the mansion to his renter.

What is the message?

[Mark Stahlke]

What you see is a row of bike racks and the Colorado Veterans Monument in downtown Denver. Everything else is all in your mind.

[BrianShaw]

Not a photo but darned clever. Once you see it, you can't unsee it.

OMG, I cannot unsee it!

[Tin Can]

I forget every thing.

Each day a fresh surprise.

"sub·lim·i·nal
ˌsəbˈlimənl/
adjective PSYCHOLOGY
(of a stimulus or mental process) below the threshold of sensation or consciousness; perceived by or affecting someone's mind without their being aware of it."

Are these example images here really subliminal?

I guess that demonstrates it is indeed subliminal if it was missed. It says "SEEING." the other cigars in the series say "IS" and "BELIEVING" in the smoke. The rose says "DEATH" and the orange says "DEATH."
