The Illustrations the New York Times Paid Money Not To Print
This Kissinger image (by David Levine) is one of 320 illustrations—by 142 of the world’s most acclaimed contemporary artists – that The New York Times itself originally commissioned for its Op-Ed Pages, but then got cold feet about running, and eventually paid more than $1 million in “kill fees” to hide from public view (sometimes for as long as 38 years).
Words appeal to our conscious minds, images to our subconscious. A single image, if contrasting enough against our usual thoughts of a subject, can provide an alternate lens/perspective through which to view that subject. Sometimes whether we want to use it or not. I wouldn’t say our subconscious minds run the show, but they draw up our first impressions and often determine what we focus on in the first place.
I look at the subconscious mind as activity that hasn’t passed through the thresh-hold of awareness. I’ll post a trick I found on youtube that demonstrates how these not-quite thoughts can guide our thinking. I think the real power of imagery is that our subconscious minds do not differentiate well if at all between false and real images. I believe that to our subconscious minds, everything we see is valid. But I believe in evolution so my main supporting argument for that would leave us at an impass.
So here is that little game/trick. After following a couple instructions, you’ll be asked to make a choice, please answer out loud with the first response that comes to mind.
Point at each number while reading them out loud.

I beg to differ on the explanation. Most people will say carrot when asked for a vegetable name.
