Subliminal: How Your Unconscious Mind Rules Your Behavior | Leonard Mlodinow | Talks at Google

- Every aspect of our mental lives plays out in two versions: one conscious, which we are constantly aware of, and the other unconscious, which remains hidden from us. Over the past two decades researchers have developed remarkable new tools for probing the unconscious, or subliminal, workings of the mind. This explosion of research has led to a sea change in our understanding of how the mind affects the way we live. As a result, scientists are becoming increasingly convinced that how we experience the world--our perception, behavior, memory, and social judgment--is largely driven by the mind's subliminal processes and not by the conscious ones, as we have long believed.

Out of a lot of talks floating on YT and in general on mind control and unconsciousness, where a lot of charlatans and bs artists just spew crap, this talk is very good and makes sense by showing things/experiments where you actually see the things and biases being presented, unlike in those hacks' presentations, where they either completely do not know what they are talking about or do not give enough motivation to pursue and follow the talk. The examples this guy gave were convincing for upping your motivation to listen to and think about what the talk is about. And he does not disappoint your expectations. So, well done.
He actually made a good impression and gave a good info that I will actually bother to internalize.
Im curious if you might add who are these hacks you speak of
This support my 11 years of experimenting and applying subliminal to every aspect of one's life.
There is a second camera pointed at the projector screen all the time. When they edit the video for upload, they get complete control over the choice to show the speaker, or the projector.
So what happened? it's painfully obvious that we are NOT getting the correct view of the projector most of the time.
If they can't be bothered editing the video properly, PLEASE just show the 2nd camera as a smaller box within the main image and just *leave it there*.
This gentleman seems nervous and he jumps around without necessarily explaining everything. If we can't see what he's talking about, then watching this video becomes a chore instead of a valuable learning experience.
I think his talk was very worthwhile, although slightly spoiled by the poor editing between the 2 cameras.
I loved your Dunkard book and the SUBLIMINAL book...full of fun and great info and a good read. you are a genius!
To everyone complaining about the "Cameraman". It seems like this is being recorded using a speaker track system. It's most useful in video conferencing and stuff. Basically, there is a camera on the back wall and it uses audio cues to determine who is speaking in the room and then zooms in on them while following them. It is completely autonomous.
This is why there is a little bit of a delay sometimes where he will go partly out of the frame and then the camera will center on him. This is also why the camera never focuses on the screen because the screen is not the one talking.
1)Thinking and speaking also consists of automatic processes. Information is deleted, distorted, pattern matched (chucked into words or concepts) and only then you are presented with an opportunity of being aware of some of those generalizations that your mind created automatically. You cannot choose to see e.g. a chair as a set of pixels. It's getting automatically pattern matched into a known concept and a word(aka a generalization) without your awareness or choice.
Great video. Alot of ideas and concepts that are very useful to know 👍🏽
This presentation is fascinating. Also I found it difficult to not fixate on Dr. Mlodinow's magnificent arms.
+dalanology He himself finds it difficult not to .....
High interest image
shame
Thought I was the only one
My subconscious was saying my arms are bigger. 💪
Wonderful!!! Thank you for your knowledge sharing. Wanna see contents on the projector screen longer. Two screens might help.
The slide where he shows "what you perceive" vs "what your eye picks up," (15:36) is misleading, because the brain doesn't construct visual perception from one mostly blurry image. Our eyes are constantly moving in saccades, so that the brain receives several center-focused images per second. These are consolidated to form an overall clear view of the scene. Context plays a part, but the brain has more information to work with than the slide suggests.
Good point. Thumb up for you.
I like your explanation here. I ought to again refer back to the quote and add that this is a long term characteristic that is being described in order that a person may live and achieve things for their survival and happiness. It's context again is with regard to ethics and values.
I love his books, just discovered this video. He has been a part of some of the great research of our time, you will discover, if you read is writings. Too bad about his name at the start, did not even ask him how he pronounces his name, introducer on par with camera tech.
2)There are innumerous simultaneous things that happen in an environment around you and in your mind. Your only option is to choose 7+-2 things that you want to be aware of. And if you even started practicing some sort of mindfulness meditation, you know how hard it can be just to be aware of just one thing for 30 minutes, without losing focus, or getting into automated thinking.
Now I know why my art looks so good to me : )
And then we are told that watching pornographic films or playing violent video games or watching tv shows where the protagonist is an anti-hero have no effect upon us at all -- just "entertainment". Friends whatever your mind and heart take in creates what you are. Be a good gatekeeper of yourself.
what are the takeaways from this?
Couple of tricks in negotiation, touch, eye contact.
Anchoring? what else
in the minute 21.27 ... about that, I'm not a native English speaker, but still possible for me to understand Legislators. The unconscious mind also uses other languages resources to communicate itself.
Poorly filmed. Not having a separate screen watching the screen the audience can see. Although nevertheless interesting
i agree. u would think that google would be better prepared to record a fucking presentation
where was the fucking so i can fast fwd to to that point...?
Just change the title to "Subliminal:How your Shadow self (ego) rules over your reactions to the experience of life" and take what he says as what to observe,witness or be aware (or mindfull) of as it "unfolds" and creates your everyday life.Realising exactly this function of yours and how it affects your emotions (Energy in MOTION....'energy follows thought',Tiller) and then how emotions affect the 5 body senses is called 'Know thy self'.Percieve it simply as a linear correspondance of those 3 functions (Mind,Psyche,Body)...with the mind always being the ruler of em all.Feeding the mind with 'higher information' (academic knowledge we call it nowadays) is the way to excercise the strongest of your functions.With it strong you can overcome the vices of the psyche and body.Once this level of experiencing and guiding yourself is attained then you are what have been called 'Master of the Self'.Only after this selfrealisation (selfawareness and selfmastery) you can go further and try to actually understand the whats,the hows,and above all the WHYS of the universe,the Cosmos......And thus open the doors towards becoming a 'Master of the Universe'......
I think the camera man is in love
I'm just fascinated by the brain and I'm a geek, so I find myself sometimes studying very technical stuff (even formulas, reactions, definitions, etc).The brain is amazing,if you know how to use it,I even did stuff like using mnemonics in a lucid dream (remembering a book a dream) and arm levitation using self-hypnosis.
But I recommend starting with the brain science podcast,then when the interest is there it's easy to study very technical stuff and you find references to books there as well.
i can Geekout with the best of them. 🎶☮️🖖

Ineffective as a speaker. I can imagine book sales were disappointing. I want my 45 minutes back.
Einstein said (at least do I've heard) that if you cannot express your ideas in simple terms, you do not know your subject well enough. Now this messenger was not able to make connection with the audience. Good research (maybe) but how does that cook my rice?
I think his talk was very worthwhile, although slightly spoiled by the poor editing between the 2 cameras. Without comprehending the complexity one cannot arrive at a reliable simplicity, and perhaps some things are not reduceable to sound-bytes
I have found the best thing I can do for my personal welfare is to stop thinking about stuff all the time. I started on this path about 6 months ago, it feels so much better.
Mlodinow's books are actually quite good. He has a strong scientific background and his writing is very clear and concise.
He has co-authored a book with Stephen Hawking.
This presentation is quite boring. His books are better.
Mlodinow is actually wrong, the world is non-deterministic (you can't use the past to predict someones future behavior and you can't use someones unconscious thoughts to predict or modify future behavior). Look up the philosophies of determinism vs non-determinism. You simply cannot incorporate just one framework (determinism) to try to explain away the rest of evolution.
I think his talk was very worthwhile, although slightly spoiled by the poor editing between the 2 cameras. Still, thanks to google's workers for making it available
Interesting presentation, thank you for sharing it! I was wondering: does this unconscious perception also apply to the picture of "the dress" that caused so much confusion on the social media around February this year? And if so: which one of both perceptions were (un)conscious? Or is there never an 'objective' perception?
When therre is a slide forr us to see, you show it, simple.
I would have loved to hear something more practical, how we can use this to reprogram ourselves intentionally. Those things were interesting, but nor particularly useful.
so true...so very, very true!
just check out the PBS doc. on deer. See if you can find the subliminal plug for the 'Exorcist theme music'. Hint: It's right near and LB.
The camera work is a typical one-camera shoot. You focus on the subject and then poke the slides in as B-Roll during post-production. Of course, because of television, we are all used to the three-camera switch and a human director to make it interesting. If you are noticing the camera work, then you are not paying attention to the message. I think this video, then, is a good lesson in subliminal communication. Nonetheless, I am reading the book and found the information interesting.
He missed a point when he talked about the road sign. When you are driving, you don't use your logical reasoning, rather you reason by comparisn or intuition. The road sign depending on the sign may never be noticed, at least not by you conscious mind. That is when traffick engineers may get fooled. Drivers pay more attention to the context. Some German roads have signs with the sin the road does with the Earth tangent plane at that point to show how steep the road is . They may think they got it right from drivers, but it is the context that counts. You don't do trigs at 100 km/h.
+Mônica Miranda I'm thinking that you missed the point here. what you are referring to as 'intuition' is the unconscious mind at work construction your reality.
Camera work as inattentive to our needs as Google is.
Your 5-yr old comment has sadly become more true. It is like Google wants us to go elsewhere for our searches.
The camera was a token "gift" to us non-Google employees. We are lucky this was made available to us. As almost always the case, fiction and nonfiction, the book is better.
I have noticed that people construct a lot when they hear. When I go about the streets near my home that are shops that plays some kind of bad taste folk songs. I just can not hear them right. They kind of not reach my mind and what I hear is something so funny and different that I can not help bursting out laughing.
I have an enormous difficulty in understanding what I hear, but my hearing tests shows that I can hear very high pitches, even dog's whistles. The problem is I can not construct or I do it with a lot of difficulty and very slowly. I had a dream where two people came to me to explain the way I hear. One of them was a professor at the university I studied. His name is Jacob Zimbarg Sobrinho. The other person was Brazil's first lady at the time, Ruth Cardoso. Both were alive at the time. He is a mathematician. She was an anthropologist. I would be kind of both had life given me the chance.
I really got impressed by Led Zeppelin's song analysis.
Our unconscious see much more and in more dimensions than our eyes can see. And so with our ears. However our unconscious mind is like a blind, deaf powerful giant in this world. It needs our conscious minds to carry that lamp to guide him. The lamp is the world of Jesus Christ and our understanding of it. I took this example from Carl Jung biography. He did not mention Jesus Christ, though, but he was a Christian and as a Christian the word of Jesus Christ was part of his conscious mind.
I kind of like the work of Carl Jung a lot and I would like to read the presenter's books.
In this tlak the camera work was subliminal, too...
“I am very comfortable with the idea that we can override biology with free will.” - Richard Dawkins
That sounds retarded. I can't willpower myself to stop the biological response to blink. Case Closed on that Dawkins Comment
Wrong interpretation.
"I am very comfortable with the idea that we can
override biology with free will. Indeed, I encourage people all
the time to do it. Much of the message of my first book, "The
Selfish Gene," was that we must understand what it means
to be a gene machine, what it means to be programmed by genes,
so that we are better equipped to escape, so that we are better
equipped to use our big brains, use our conscience intelligence,
to depart from the dictates of the selfish genes and to build
for ourselves a new kind of life which as far as I am concerned
the more un-Darwinian it is the better, because the Darwinian
world in which our ancestors were selected is a very unpleasant
world. Nature really is red in tooth and claw. And when we sit
down together to argue out and discuss and decide upon how we
want to run our societies, I think we should hold up Darwinism
as an awful warning for how we should not organize our societies."
+Alexander Nedelkos
Yeah, that is an even more powerful Dawkins quote, in full. The ability to rise above our animal (selfish) instincts is what enables our species to grow beyond our primitive states of conscious awareness.
Physicist Sean Carroll also has a cogent theory on free will, which dovetails nicely with Dawkins' ideas, and specifically addresses the issue of determinism in the physicalist free will paradigm.
"Free will is an emergent property that is consistent with the microscopic dynamics." - Sean Carroll
Cheers.
“But to think is an act of choice. The key to what you so recklessly call ‘human nature,’ the open secret you live with, yet dread to name, is the fact that man is a being of volitional consciousness. Reason does not work automatically; thinking is not a mechanical process; the connections of logic are not made by instinct. The function of your stomach, lungs or heart is automatic; the function of your mind is not. In any hour & issue of your life, you are free to think or to evade that effort.
A cameraman that could follow the content and actually capture the visuals would very helpful to this presentation.
I agree!!!
in Beyonce's "Haunted" play it backwards and it has a similar effect
He clapped at the beginning then I clapped I need no further proof the title is true.
He was one of the screenwriters of Star Trek: The Next Generation and MacGyver, some people are just so cool that whatever they do rules...
The second video of this topic and the same problem the video editing. But in general good speech.
cont/d ...But you are not free to escape from your nature, from the fact that reason is your means of survival-so that for you, who are a human being, the question ‘to be or not to be’ is the question ‘to’ think or not to think.’
@AtGoogleTalks It would be much more useful and informative to use a splitscreen format with 65% of screen given to the speakers slides rather than show only the speaker.
So interesting but unfortunately frustrating because we do t get to see what the audience sees☹️
Awesome talk, but what's up with the camera? You'd better point a camera at what the presenter is trying to convey rather than at the presenter himself
Yes, this was very frustrating. Use a new cameraman/editor in the future.
Your subconscious is apparently a bit weak. Don't need pictures if you have an imagination.
Any summary about the theories discussed?
A recent poker hand that got a lot of attention and drama was a J/4 hand, the female player thought she had a J/5, nobody believed her, but her hand before was a J/5.
Adjusts the data.
Now we know where the climate change nonsense comes from.
we need to see more of the screen.. than leo's face
I saw the ladder and the face easily. Does sexuality play a part in determining what high interest image is? Because I'm not exactly interested in women.
0:05 WHOOSH! :-)
He never embedded the lyrics, the song was exactly the same every time. The only difference between the first time and when he put the lyrics up was the fact that he put the lyrics (or should I say the "false lyrics") up
The cameraman needs to be fired, he sucks at his job.
Fab Talk ! Fab Book !
The camera direction is making me crazy. It misses the displays.
Alguém pode traduzir este vídeo pro Português e fazer está caridade para nós?
😅😅😅😅
You misunderstand me. let me be clearer. I am referring to rational thinking, meaning to use a logical process, in that this is a volitional choice, meaning to take abstractions from the subconscious into the conscious and concreting them, from identification to application. I mistakenly left out the end (") as my post is a quote that I have lifted, but the premise is as I have now described. I ought to have been clearer.
Many people will misunderstand and misinterpret what this means. And many more will not understand what this means for their daily lives.
your cute
I did not learn a thing .how does this help me?
is there any problem if i download a subliminal from utube
Go to wikipedia.
"Checker shadow illusion"
hi @28 min.
that would be "make me a cyborg"
E' molto simpatico ma il fulcro del suo discorso qual è?
I limiti dell'attenzione li conosco, i fattori subliminali possono influire ma in certi contesti. Hanno presa solo su menti poco lucide e consapevoli.
In conclusione ben poco mi ha trasmesso.
Maybe the hired cameraman was told specifically to focus on Mr. Mlodinow.
Do I need to read the book or to watch this? Is it the same?
Both. Unfortunately, editing was done by someone who obviously did not listen to the speech.
What exactly is Mofedest Miracle? How does this thing really work? I notice many people keep on talking about this popular law of attraction course that created by well known life coach.
If unconscious mind can create our present reality driving our vision and hearing, and additionally can create our past based on the interpretation and recreation of memories, there should be some way in which it creates our future too. Am I right?
+Santi Amen It can't create our future (maybe) but it can definitely create an unconscious expectation of the future.
schoolofmyth However, if future isn`t existing yet and it's just and expectation, what's the difference between create the future and create an expectation about the future?
I dunno, you can figure that out XD
schoolofmyth There's no difference
+Santi Amen There is a difference. Creating the future is nothing more than imagination. This image will then be a guide to what you will want to get in the future and will only come to fruition if action has been applied to fill that image. However if you create an expectation about the future. Linguistically, that mean you expect that future to be real, which also mean it does not require your action, or a causation to current effort. Most of us have experienced this and the future always does not reciprocate entirely to what was expected.
the "sweet" experiment is questionable. folks were unlikely to be focused on listening to the list of words being spoken to begin with... they were likely studying the list visually and ignoring the spoken words to better absorb the list to memory.
Hey. Show me the checkerboard after the cylinder is removed!!!! Those squares are not identical at all!
Really bad camera work! It kills the impact of the speech.
Your subconscious is apparently a bit weak. Don't need pictures if you have an imagination.
It’s fine but yer needs to be zoomed out a bit
The camera work was terrible, as if the person behind it had a crush on the speaker. Lost interest a third of the way through due to frustration of not seeing the images.
maybe they are there but your unconscious mind is blocking them out
Who's responsible for the camera work?
Very smart
They should fire whoever is filming this talk. Slides that he is referencing would be nice to actually see.
It would be useful if you show the slides instead of moving the camera in the middle. stupid camera coverage.
How about that GEICO commercial with the CAMEL....Talk about SUBLIMINAL MESSAGES
Couldn't see the other checkerboard
Simply: TED Talks > Google Talks. But it's Google, guys... they'll figure it out.
Great talk, but it's the shitiest footage of a talk I've ever seen. Shitty camera work. Shittier edition work. Shame on google.
Fernando Cavalcante shame is a strong word.have some mercy!😛
Fernando Cavalcante why even focus on negative lol you got info is that not maim thing
I agree that the editing is not great. Perhaps young video-editing talent would rather be working on movies and tv than google talks.
the guy at the begining looks super nervous
And your avatar makes me super nervous.
Heck of a cameraman.....
give Indonesian translation, plzzz:((
who taught you this???
The world is controlled by this.
The average person probably has very little understanding of his or her unconscious mind..
interesting...
Yeah, what Bob Sonder said. Thanks for sharing but this was very awkward. I'd rather just see the slides than the speaker too bad you guys don't work somewhere tech-savvy where the would be a ton of people lying around who could pull this off without a problem. You guys should get in touch with the company that own TH-cam. There should be SOMEONE who knows how to produce video content working over there!
The camera work for perfectly fine, the talk was mediocre.
i think you wrote that backwards
in the world of the blind...
agree the camera man doesn't show the pictures on the screen so we can't follow the lecture. very bad. so i stopped watching thx very much.
im mad at the camerman literally
Your subconscious is apparently a bit weak. Don't need pictures if you have an imagination.
Well you making remarks on someone being able to figure out how to add a icon shows
how glad you are to have done so yourself I do not like adding anything to symbolise anything
while you seem to be sympathetic to Africa/ African wildlife who also may be from there at some point in time how relevant that is at present you can figure it out yourself as for Einstein if he was worth anything the Nazi's would have locked him up for safe keeping and he asked Roosevelt to start making the Atomic Bomb
The editor of this video wasn't paying attention.
Your subconscious is apparently a bit weak. Don't need pictures if you have an imagination.
Tell Google to listen to Bob Sonder.
Lecture is brilliant. Camera person sucks.
How did they know only the touch influecen the decisions, maybe the girls sample have a different taste so they like the guy more due to their other appeal and not on touch all the experiment he says are like the don't eat the cookies for a 5 Yr old which has so many other param not taken I to acct... If a kid doesn't like cookie of course they won't be tempted in 1st place.... Are these ppl like in cave don't even know how to conduct experiments....
Remember kids: this guy is a physicist, not a psychologist. What he says is said with determination and confidence! No such thing would be found in a psychologist's, or better yet - a good methodologist's, repetoar. He is not credible, he is a physicist. He is milking his position. I hope that most of you agree. You wouldn't be accepting medical or law advices from a mathematician now, would you? :)
SW627 remember kids, this guy is also a nobody on youtube. You wouldn't trust some nobodys opinion about some person about whom he cannot make an opinion as that person didn't make a constatation about a relations in a scientific field, when all he did was try to expose a pseudoscience in progress, as explaining human behaviour and giving self-help recipies, and also advices that are appliable to everyone is a way in which we contribute to pseudoscience in psychology (Lilienfeld, 2012; 2009; Rosenberg, 2012; Ferguson 2015). Oh wow, why did he know that?? Maybe he happens to know random shit or he actually does know psychology as he studies it in uni... maybe, just maybe. Never will we know though.
SW627 removed them. I honestly thought that everyone does that
without seeing the slides its pretty pointless watching
40:00
The non-Freudian unconscious.
when does he explian the tests? grrrrr..
