EFFECTS of FACE IMAGES and FACE PAREIDOLIA on CONSUMERS' RESPONSES to PRINT ADVERTISING Gianluigi Guido
EFFECTS OF FACE IMAGES AND FACE PAREIDOLIA ON CONSUMERS’ RESPONSES TO PRINT ADVERTISING Gianluigi Guido, (corresponding author) Department of Management, Economics, Mathematics, and Statistics University of Salento, Ecotekne Campus, Via per Monteroni, 73100 Lecce, Italy +39 0832 298601, [email protected] Marco Pichierri, Department of Management, Economics, Mathematics, and Statistics University of Salento, Ecotekne Campus, Via per Monteroni, 73100 Lecce, Italy [email protected] Giovanni Pino, Department of Management, Economics, Mathematics, and Statistics University of Salento, Ecotekne Campus, Via per Monteroni, 73100 Lecce, Italy [email protected] Rajan Nataraajan, Department of Economics, Auburn University Auburn, AL 36849, [email protected] 1 EFFECTS OF FACE IMAGES AND FACE PAREIDOLIA ON CONSUMERS’ RESPONSES TO PRINT ADVERTISING Abstract The present research investigates whether print advertisements featuring faces (i.e., “face ads”) or face-like images (i.e., “pareidolian ads”) are better able to capture consumer attention than ads that do not include such elements. In two studies, the research examined the effects of exposing consumers to print ads containing faces or pareidolian images for short time lapses (0.5, 1, and 3 seconds). The results show that both ad types capture viewers’ attention and are more frequently recognized than advertisements that do not feature faces or face-like objects. Moreover, both face ads and pareidolian ads increase brand recognition and ad preference. The theoretical and operational implications are discussed. Keywords: Faces, pareidolia, orienting response, attention, ad preference, ad recognition, brand recognition. Management Slant • Ads featuring human faces and “face-like” (i.e., pareidolian) images capture greater attention and preference than other ads in short time lapses. -

The Authenticity of Ambiguity: Dada and Existentialism
THE AUTHENTICITY OF AMBIGUITY: DADA AND EXISTENTIALISM by ELIZABETH FRANCES BENJAMIN A thesis submitted to The University of Birmingham For the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY Department of Modern Languages College of Arts and Law University of Birmingham August 2014 University of Birmingham Research Archive e-theses repository This unpublished thesis/dissertation is copyright of the author and/or third parties.

French Existentialism is often condemned for its perceived quietist implications. However, closer analysis reveals a preoccupation with philosophy in the former and with art in the latter. Neither was nonsensical or meaningless, but both reveal a rich individualist ethics aimed at the amelioration of the individual and society. It is through their combined analysis that we can view and productively utilise their alignment. Offering new critical aesthetic and philosophical approaches to Dada as a quintessential part of the European Avant-Garde, this thesis performs a reassessment of the movement as a form of (proto-)Existentialist philosophy. The thesis represents the first major comparative study of Dada and Existentialism, contributing a new perspective on Dada as a movement, a historical legacy, and a philosophical field of study. -
Cinematic Ghosts: Haunting and Spectrality from Silent Cinema to the Digital Era
Cinematic Ghosts: Haunting and Spectrality from Silent Cinema to the Digital Era. Edited by Murray Leeder. Bloomsbury Academic, 2015 (307 pages). Anton Karl Kozlovic Murray Leeder’s exciting new book sits comfortably alongside The Haunted Screen: Ghosts in Literature & Film (Kovacs), Ghost Images: Cinema of the Afterlife (Ruffles), Dark Places: The Haunted House in Film (Curtis), Popular Ghosts: The Haunted Spaces of Everyday Culture (Blanco and Peeren), The Spectralities Reader: Ghost and Haunting in Contemporary Cultural Theory (Blanco and Peeren), The Ghostly and the Ghosted in Literature and Film: Spectral Identities (Kröger and Anderson), and The Spectral Metaphor: Living Ghosts and the Agency of Invisibility (Peeren) amongst others. Within his Introduction Leeder claims that “[g]hosts have been with cinema since its first days” (4), that “cinematic double exposures, [were] the first conventional strategy for displaying ghosts on screen” (5), and that “[c]inema does not need to depict ghosts to be ghostly and haunted” (3). However, despite the above-listed texts and his own reference list (9–10), Leeder somewhat surprisingly goes on to claim that “this volume marks the first collection of essays specifically about cinematic ghosts” (9), and that the “principal focus here is on films featuring ‘non-figurative ghosts’—that is, ghosts supposed, at least diegetically, to be ‘real’— in contrast to ‘figurative ghosts’” (10). In what follows, his collection of fifteen essays is divided across three main parts chronologically examining the phenomenon. Part One of the book is devoted to the ghosts of precinema and silent cinema. In Chapter One, “Phantom Images and Modern Manifestations: Spirit Photography, Magic Theater, Trick Films, and Photography’s Uncanny”, Tom Gunning links “Freud’s uncanny, the hope to use modern technology to overcoming [sic] death or contact the afterlife, and the technologies and practices that led to cinema” (10). -

It's Getting Cold Outside and You Know, That Is My Favorite Time of Year
Transcript of Lab 016 ___ Zakiya: It's getting cold outside and you know, that is my favorite time of year. Titi: Mine, too. Zakiya: Cuffing season. Titi: That's right. Zakiya: Turtleneck season. Titi: The best. Zakiya: And spooky season. Titi: Me and Zakiya bonded very, very early in our friendship over our love, of all things spooky. Zakiya: That's right. Titi: We love Halloween. We love all the marathons of all the scary movies. We will watch them all and scare ourselves to the point where we can't go to sleep. Zakiya: Yeah. You gotta watch them back to back. To back to back. You don't let the scariness die down. You gotta keep a high level of... Titi: Exactly. Zakiya: ...Anxiety. Titi: You watch six scary movies back to back and then a Cheerios commercial come on, you still gonna be shook by that Cheerios commercial. That's the type of scared we want to be. Zakiya: "What was that behind her?"... "It's just milk!". Titi: Those honey nut O's. I don't know. www.dopelabspodcast.com Titi: I'm Titi. Zakiya: And I'm Zakiya. Titi: And from Spotify studio. This is Dope Labs. Zakiya: So, I don't think we told this part of the story. But in the memory episode, when you talked about dropping the rib on the floor, that's because we thought we heard something at the back door. But we also watched two or three slasher films. Titi: Yeah. So, we thought he had come, him the killer. -

We describe in some delail our own work with ghost hunting, and reflecton both intended and uninlcnded consequences of lhis pedagogical choice. This choice was partly molivatcd by s1uden1s· lack of familiaritywith science and philo�ophic questions ahout it. We offerreflections on our lhree different implcmenlalions of the ghosl hunting activities. In addition. we discuss the practical nuances of implementing these activities, as well the relation of ghost hunting lo our course content. including informal fallacies and some models for scientilic inference. We conclude that employing ghost hunting along-side tmdilional activities and contcnl of critical lhinking and philosophy of science offersa number of henelits, including being fun, increasing studenl altendance, enhancing sludent leaming, and providing a platform forcampus wide dialogues about philosophy. Introduction In pursuit of deep learning, it is helpful to ask what sludents can do, in order to get a better handle on sometimes foreign and abstract ideas.
