Neuromarketing: How to Appeal to the Reptilian Brain

[joroma77]

What an idiot this guy is. So much intelligence going to waste. Transmission from the eye is faster than transmission from the ear... So what? Would you want it any other way? How would you be able to concentrate if the ear data transmission was faster? It has to be processed to decide if the info is pressing enough to care about. Sadly people are paying big chunks of money to go to these lectures.

[joroma77]

Some commenters say the "reptile brain" is the oldest. Based on what? Based on their imagination. They never saw a newer brain form around the alleged older one. It's all in their heads...

[joroma77]

He just HAD to get the evolutionary idea in there, as if this reflex-type part of our brain is a conclusive evidence of ancestry to reptiles. Evolutionists are funny. They've got 80% evidence of divine Creation, of which maybe 10% is absolutely conclusive PROOF of a Creator, but they bury their heads in the sand and cling to the 20% of circumstantial indicators they have left.

Interesting to research how the human brain works, sad that it's used for egging on already over-stimulated "consumers." Such a sad state the human race is is.

[S1L3nCe]

@xyugi0007 I was just explaining why most people tend to visualize it from the inside. It is a very predictable human response for the reasons I just mentioned.

[S1L3nCe]

0:43 Obviously... people see their houses mostly from the inside. How do you expect them to visualize it?

[xyugi0007]

@S1L3nCe From the outside..?

[xyugi0007]

@S1L3nCe That´s why he said most people viewed it that way, not all.

[BladesOfMunch]

Now, THIS could form an interesting perspective to consider concerning Theory of Mind.

[670Kiester]

what an assh*le this guy is

[Ramsez]

so what's our reptilian brain's agenda?

[drchaffee]

Finally, a breakthrough!! I had just been thinking about how awful companies are at getting people to buy a bunch of crap they don't need. What's next, intravenous drug pumping from my cable set-top box?

[publiccable]

Flora TV is just like TED without the full length videos

[kokofan50]

@publiccable If you see the link under the video its too the whole video on their site

[StarCloud14]

What a load of bollocks!

[mysql0]

@StarCloud14 how is this bollocks? it's proven facts. are you one of these christians or other crazy religious folk that is in a habit of denying reality, logic, facts and reason?

[StarCloud14]

@mysql0 I'm athiest~

My bollocks goes towards the relevance of the topic...

[Alexc3217]

@StarCloud14 It's relevant becaus enow we know that our future reptillian overlords won't hear us begging, so now we know to use flash cards to beg for mercy.

[narutofan9999]

@StarCloud14

You kidding? You are asking what relevance knowing how our brain works has for us?

[StarCloud14]

@narutofan9999 Then talk about human brains. Not reptilian ones....

[narutofan9999]

@StarCloud14

It's just a comparison.

[StarCloud14]

@narutofan9999 Fair enough~ But to call the whole thing '...to a reptilian brain' is irrelevant...just a money making name in my opinion.

[ThePunisherNWO]

@StarCloud14

no you retard its not irrelevant since the reptilian brain is responsible for that visual stimuli you love when you watch movies, have sex, are scared etc, its why humans are greedy, the neocortex is the more advanced brain architecture its what you call on when you do advanced physics calculations

[StarCloud14]

@ThePunisherNWO and it's my prehistoric fish part of the brain that tells me you're dumb...

Iit's like saying you're swedish, when only 1 great great great ect grand father once lived there. Idiot.

[ThePunisherNWO]

@StarCloud14

/facepalm

you fail at trolling ;)

[ThePunisherNWO]

@StarCloud14

you walk over from stupid town? since you are an a-grade retard

the reptilian brain is part of all humans, we have a reptilian brain (oldest), the right brain (newer) and the the left brain (newest).

[xPEACHxEATERx]

Marketing to 'the reptilian brain' might well work on those lacking the defining quality between man and animal... intelligence. Fuck these souless dogs with pointy sticks. :)

[Horicert]

In the words of the late Bill Hicks, marketers should go kil themselves.

[hellfencer]

Huh this is very interesting. I want to know more, but I'm not paying $150 for it :P

[mcpsoundman]

What if I counted my windows from the outside?

[martmcphly]

@mcpsoundman i guess it would be the same since its still being visually pictured

[SharkDude1]

So whats the point?

[DeistByDefinition]

GAME OVER CREATIONISTS!!  GAME OVER!!

;-)

[Laughingblades]

Bah, great interest, a Freudian slip I suppose, I've been doing social experiments for a long time to see the interesting ways that people react to moral dilemmas and different propaganda methods, especially over the internet.

[Laughingblades]

As a biological sociopath who only discovered ethics and philosophy around the age of 20, which with the insights of Sam Harris gave me an ethical framework that isn't based on feeling remorse, guilt, pity, or the emotional aspects of empathy, I am deeply interested in matters such as this. I've noticed throughout my life how people are emotionally and psychologically manipulated, I took great effort in the mental experiments in east Germany, and powerful techniques are being used commercially.

[knowthetruth1492]

Kentucky makes South Carolina look like New York.

[knowthetruth1492]

They speak English in Kentucky? LOL!

[SytrusISurtys]

[CognosSquare]

This talk was held in Kentucky? You could hardly hear a banjo in the audience.

[ThePunisherNWO]

@CognosSquare

you retarded?

most of the US speaks english

[CognosSquare]

@ThePunisherNWO no, you failed to get the joke.

[johammbass]

Finally one non politically elitist video from fora. Bravo!

[2plus2make4]

@johammbass thought it was just me....

[squirreljester2]

Where's the full talk?

[BroBroDude]

@squirreljester2 you have to pay for it at their site. hilarious

[unamaxify]

@squirreljester2

Full version is pay-content

click the link in the descryption-bar

then click "Patrick Renvoisé: Selling Your Brain"

below the video click "chapters"

then click "Watch Full Program"

It costs $19.95

[thesparitan]

Good how to do propaganda better, am I the only that is totally against this idea?

[TheMercilessEye]

@thesparitan Knowledge of the technique enables resistence to the technique.  You learn to look for the signs of it. Stop thinking naively.

[thesparitan]

@TheMercilessEye I'm watching it aren't I? Stop thinking so literally.

[TheMercilessEye]

@thesparitan LOL...touche.

[ihateslideshows]

this guy a david icke fan? or is this reptillian brain stuff for real

[volound]

@ihateslideshows ohh for fucks sake.

believe it or not, reptilian is actually a real word. it means "of or relating to the reptile".

it just so happens that reptiles exist, and existed, and we have reptiles as our ancestors, and we still have vestiges of their anatomy i.e. the reptilian brain. we also have an amphibian brain and a mammalian brain.

[SystelCyrus]

@volound *Snicker*

[emikochan13]

@ihateslideshows read up on evolution, you have much to learn.

[Viracocha711]

@ihateslideshows David Icke is 100% NUTS! So is Alex Jones! What you need to do is read "The Greatest Show on Earth by Richard Dawkins...It will explain the reality of Evolution to you. 

[LokiClock]

@Viracocha711 They're not nuts, they're just dim.

[Viracocha711]

@LokiClock Actually David Icke is NUTS...Alex Jones is also nuts but has been able to channel his nuttiness into a money making machine. The sad part is many folks think they are gaining some kind of special knowledge listening to him spazz out on a daily basis.

[ihateslideshows]

@Viracocha711 alex jones is right about 911 and obama being a puppet for the nwo, i don't watch every single one of his youtube videos like some people butt he is pretty legit.

[Viracocha711]

@ihateslideshows You are truly NAIVE! LOL! Alex Jones is money making machine that capitalizes off the young, ignorant & frankly loony crowds that exist on the fringes of society. Nothing more.

[ihateslideshows]

@Viracocha711 thats an interesting pecpective, butt you probably dont smoke weed.

[Viracocha711]

@ihateslideshows I am disabled due to spinal cord injury & YES I smoke weed.

[ihateslideshows]

@Viracocha711 then i see why u think that way

[joroma77]

@Viracocha711 Icke is not as nuts as he is evil. He does freemason handshakes. An instrument to deter the fringe people from knowing the truth. By the way, I have listened to Dawkins. He can yap on for hours and not say even one substantial word. He is like a clown. And boring at that.

[Viracocha711]

@joroma77 It does not surprise me at all that someone who fears dumb handshakes would say a world renowned scientist & author is a "clown & boring". Maybe you should read his new book for children...Then move up from there?

[FIGHTFANNERD3]

vary cool put up the whole talk

[TheDepreso]

You mean how to appeal to Dick Cheney and Donald Rumsfeld/?
