As instructed by my English professor, I will be keeping a blog about Subliminal Messages for the semester. Even though this controversial tactic has been disproven in recent years, it caused quite a stir back in the 60's, when certain brands used it to feed people the desire to buy their products, some bands hid messages in their music and some movies included a plethora of words, pictures and ideas hidden in their content (Disney, I'm looking at you). Nowadays, this tactic is illegal in most countries when applied to people without their knowledge, but the self-improvement business has started using subliminal messages for everything from weight loss to self-confidence, and some artists still backmask things into their tracks. Backmasking is the practice of recording words and phrases into a record that are only heard when played backwards, more common and obvious in vinyl records (as it was easier to play it back than with CD's, for example). I will delve deeper into backmasking later on, but for now, I hope to learn something new and practice my English writing skills in the process. Max out.
PD: Mr Josh, you suggested we make a hobby out of this investigation. Are you condoning my illegal actions? If so, I must inform you that that is very wrong, especially from a figure of authority like you!
PDD: If you disapprove of the title of the blog, listen to Queen's Another One Bites the Dust backwards first.
