    Yup, it's the Yale professor from the psychology lecture series. He gives great lectures. I feel like this talk helps illustrates the power of spin doctors and good story tellers.

    Our likes are subjective. That's why advertising is still around. We seldom turn to reason for our shopping habits. It's all rather emotional.

    I can't figure why evolutionary psychology gets such a bad rap. These guys really know their stuff!

    I always feel odd or like a psychopath when I watch these things, because most things do not appeal to me in the same way as they do to other people. Everything is replaceable and I don't care about sentiment; I'm rarely not disillusioned by fame, and I don't care about tradition.

      Joshua L psychopathy has less to do with your egocentrism, and more to do with the inability to experience emotion *except* through the predation of others..
      You don't feel "odd", you feel "apathetic"..
      learn to discern the states of your awareness so that you can take responsibility for *why* you feel as you do..

    i was bursting to spurt out an example while listening to them talk at the end. If you create a horror movie, and find a way to lie to everyone that it was made in the 80's by murderous psychopaths, then there will be lots of people that want to see it. I guess they do things like that already to a small extent, when they use 'based on a true story' (blair witch for example) or when it contains 'video footage of real parts of that story'

    I enjoyed the presentation but disagree with the Shakespeare. Shakespeare's comment never includes the concept of intent. His entire presentation he covered very well how perception had bearing on information processing, reward/pleasure, and even "intent" in the electro-shock" experiments. Shakespeare's quote does not cover this aspect of perception because it ignores "The Golden Rule" when it is applied to intent. But, please don't think I didn't enjoy this because I am sharing it :D

      @Minor socialist I think that, unless you learned a language from birth, you can never really call it your 'native' language. But I'm honestly not sure.
