“Seeing is believing’’. Investigating the ability and impact of visuals to influence human thought process compared to words.

In the current society, technology and social medias play an important role within our life. They have the ability to affect our daily expectation and choices. The videos, visuals and music that revolve around our daily life were portals used by specific parties to manipulate the thought process, decisions and attitude of the public.

This experiment aims to investigate the manipulation of visual images through media. The change in psychological behavior of individuals were recorded through 2 similar experiments: with and without the use of visuals.
