The Psychology of Color in Marketing The psychology of color as it relates to persuasion is one of the most interesting—and most controversial—aspects of marketing. The reason: Most of today’s conversations on colors and persuasion consist of hunches, anecdotal evidence and advertisers blowing smoke about “colors and the mind.” To alleviate this trend and give proper treatment to a truly fascinating element of human behavior, today we’re going to cover a selection of the most reliable research on color theory and persuasion. Misconceptions around the Psychology of Color Why does color psychology invoke so much conversation… but is backed with so little data? As research shows, it’s likely because elements such as personal preference, experiences, upbringing, cultural differences, context, etc., often muddy the effect individual colors have on us. The conversation is only worsened by incredibly vapid visuals that sum up color psychology with awesome “facts” such as this one: Don’t fret, though. Color Preferences by Gender

Right Brain, Left Brain? Scientists Debunk Popular Theory Maybe you're "right-brained": creative, artistic, an open-minded thinker who perceives things in subjective terms. Or perhaps you're more of a "left-brained" person, where you're analytical, good at tasks that require attention to detail, and more logically minded. It turns out, though, that this idea of "brained-ness" might be more of a figure of speech than anything, as researchers have found that these personality traits may not have anything to do with which side of the brain you use more. Researchers from the University of Utah found with brain imaging that people don't use the right sides of their brains any more than the left sides of their brains, or vice versa. "It's absolutely true that some brain functions occur in one or the other side of the brain. Anderson and his colleagues, who published their new study in the journal PLOS ONE, looked at brain scans from 1,011 people between ages 7 and 29.
Cover Story: How NSA Spied on Merkel Cell Phone from Berlin Embassy It's a prime site, a diplomat's dream. Is there any better location for an embassy than Berlin's Pariser Platz? It's just a few paces from here to the Reichstag. When the American ambassador steps out the door, he looks directly onto the Brandenburg Gate. When the United States moved into the massive embassy building in 2008, it threw a huge party. Research by SPIEGEL reporters in Berlin and Washington, talks with intelligence officials and the evaluation of internal documents of the US' National Security Agency and other information, most of which comes from the archive of former NSA contractor Edward Snowden, lead to the conclusion that the US diplomatic mission in the German capital has not merely been promoting German-American friendship. The NSA spying scandal has thus reached a new level, becoming a serious threat to the trans-Atlantic partnership. Hardly anything is as sensitive a subject to Merkel as the surveillance of her cellphone. 'That's Just Not Done' Posing as Diplomats
Tarot of the Bohemians: Chapter X. The Symbolical Tarot: The First Card of the Tarot: Origin of the Signification of All the Others Sacred Texts Tarot Tarot Reading Index Previous Next p. 100 We see from our preceding work that if we know the exact meaning of the first card of the Tarot we can, from that, discover the signification of all the others. We cannot approach this subject without great hesitation. The hope of ascertaining the truth is, in fact, troubled by the possibility of making a mistake which might have very serious results. The work which we have already accomplished will, however, enable us to decipher the meaning of the symbolism of the first card of the Tarot almost mathematically, but the general meaning only; whilst we know that each card must have not one, but three meanings. We must discover three sufficiently general principles to be applied to every order of human knowledge; for this should be the object of the Tarot. The Pole HŒNÉ WRONSKI, 1 who died of hunger in the suburbs of Paris, was perhaps one of the most powerful intellects produced by the 19th century. p. 101 p. 102 p. 103 p. 104 Footnotes

What would you say to the NSA if you could send them an anonymous message? Christoph Wachter & Mathias Jud, Can You Hear Me, 2014. Antenna pointing at the Embassy of the U.S. Christoph Wachter & Mathias Jud, Can You Hear Me, 2014. Pariser Platz Berlin-based artists Christoph Wachter & Mathias Jud have installed WLAN / WiFi mesh network with can antennas on the roofs of the Academy of Arts and the Swiss Embassy, both located in the heart of "NSA's Secret Spy Hub" in the city. The installation is a direct reference to Edward Snowden's revelations that the U.S.' Christoph Wachter & Mathias Jud, Can You Hear Me, 2014 Wachter and Jud's DIY can antennas don't hide themselves.

Messages can be sent to the intelligence agencies on the frequencies that are intercepted by the NSA and GCHQ. Hi Mathias! You organize guided tours.
Social anarchism Libertarian socialists believe in converting present-day private property into the commons or public goods, while retaining respect for personal property.[4] Social anarchism is used to specifically describe tendencies within anarchism that have an emphasis on the communitarian and cooperative aspects of anarchist theory and practice. Social anarchism is generally considered an umbrella term that includes (but is not limited to) anarcho-collectivism, anarcho-communism, anarcho-syndicalism, and social ecology. Social anarchism is often used as a term interchangeably with libertarian socialism,[1] left-libertarianism,[5] or left-anarchism.[6] The term emerged in the late 19th century as a distinction from individualist anarchism.[7] Historical currents[edit] Mutualism[edit] Collectivist anarchism[edit] Anarchist communism[edit] Anarcho-communist Peter Kropotkin believed that in anarchy, workers would spontaneously self-organize to produce goods for all of society. Anarcho-syndicalism[edit]
