That is brilliantly done!

Genius!

Loved that. Did anyone else notice the visual similarity between Satan and the late John Thaw? I kept thinking it feels like a 'Sweeny' spin off!

Following on from that link, I watched some nonsense about keeping an egg in Cola for a year, some Illuminati symbolism, Mason symbolism and Satanic messages hidden in buildings, music videos and cigarettes. Humanity is special.

Yes, I always like things like those links. Trouble is he's preaching to the converted, the people who really need to listen to these sort of things (for their own peace of mind if nothing else) never do. I have come to realise you can't reason with them, reason plays very little part in their thought processes. Never mind, we will just have to laugh at it all - like your post is. Maybe they will get the joke and rejoin us as rational beings. We can but hope, even if it looks like a slim hope. In case you ever run into the sort of people we are laughing at, be warned, forget reasoning with them. It can be a bit disturbing when someone you think is a decent person turns all fire and brimstone on you....

well, til they learn we'll just have to continue to take their money. he does indeed appear to be preaching to the converted, but some interesting points are raised, from the perspective of being involved in the dark arts and creating illusion - squeezing big sounds into little speakers and such as we do - it would be interesting to hear an audio centric psychoacoustic talk on similar matters, how to exploit such cues and 'priming' as he calls it. i'm sure a lot of us do so already, if only unconsciously, but it's interesting seeing language applied to the process in order to communicate about it clearly without invoking magic and mojo. (or, indeed, marketing).
