Machine knows the attractiveness of your face

British scientists found out that the attractiveness of man`s face can be judged by a machine. They referred to three attributes: trustful, attractive and dominant.

The scientists based their study on 65 different items which help to identify a face and the differences between faces. By this they could find reliable judgement being made by a machine.

The results of the study underline the importance of the unconscious spontaneous judgement on first sight. This means much less than a second. If you are interested and want tro learn more about first sight and the judgement of the facial Expression please have a look.

How to taste another body language 🙂

Some time ago a new restaurant opened in Canada. Nothing important you could say.

Well, new is that there is the opportunity for a “double-taste”. One taste is reserved for food and Drinks. The second taste is reserved for body language. What could this be, you may ask. Well, as the waiters are unable to hear or speak they can only communicate with a Special sign-language. This sign-language of course is nonverbal.

How does it work there, you may ask. Well, you decide your dish and drink and will find the reference signs being pictured in the nemu.

You are now invited to order nonverbally by using this special sign-language. If you are good enough you will of course what you wanted to get. If you are not so good in the beginning, you may get a surprise dish. 🙂

Please have a look and imagine yourself being there and order a dish and a drink.

It`s the music….

No human culture has been identified that doesn’t have music. For so many people music is the source of the most powerful and significant experiences in their lives. But what is the compelling force scientist ask. More or less they found out, that there is no holy grail of a mathematical or acoustical explanation. The most important aspect is the complex manner in which music is embedded into social functions.

There’s nothing secret about music’s power in our lives even if we’re a long way from having a proper understanding of it. Listening and understanding are two different approaches. There are very different from each other. If you want to get to know more about it just read the following text.
