Panoptic Posted September 29, 2013 Share Posted September 29, 2013 I saw this video and thought it should go here. It is very interesting. It talks about how we learn facial expressions to survive in our specific culture. I wonder what effect this has if any on our internal emotions. I have to say, jump to 23:42 if you want to see the very creepy, good stuff. Its called "microexpressions". Tell me what you think! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m72bqvf_qDg I also wanted to add this short video about it. If you don't have time to watch the long one, this one is good too. He says how people can learn to spot microexpressions on the internet and it only takes about an hour to teach someone how to do it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MysterionMuffles Posted September 29, 2013 Share Posted September 29, 2013 I've noticed that in real life and in movies, subtle facial cues that say so much more than words. Really scary stuff. I want to watch this whole video sometime. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lians Posted September 29, 2013 Share Posted September 29, 2013 Thanks for posting these videos! Definitely worth a watch. Malcolm Gladwell's book Blink touches on the work of Paul Ekman and other related research. You should definitely read it if you're interested in this topic.
