  6. +nationalparksign . __ I wonder if these kinds of incident (which I am seeing more and more of) are being used to get people to want "self-parking" cars which can avoid that kind of "human error".

  13. The woman in orange is certainly not your friend given how she casually walks off.
  14.  
  15. What I'd like to know is why a full second was cut from the footage.
  16.  
  17. While the seemingly unnecessary edit makes the potato cam footage more dubious (will the quality still be that bad in the year 2317?) it doesn't disqualify the clip as sufficient proof for the central claim of a woman getting needlessly run over by an incompetent driver.
  18.  
  19. That part was undeniable.
  20.  
  21. The CCTV jumps from 46m:28s to 46m:30s. By all means play "spot the difference"!

  32. +The Color Out of Space __ As much as possible we are presented with "evidence" in a form that "needs to be trusted" and can be doubted by intelligent people.
  33.  
  34. If that weren't true then we would regularly expect to see nice clear and undeniable footage. But it's always filmed with a potato! If it's HD then if it shows anything it's often shaky as though Michael J. Fox had filmed it!
  35.  
  36. With the parking incident there *must* exist a better quality version of the CCTV without portions chopped out. So why aren't we shown *that*?
  37.  
  38. A common excuse I encounter is: "News websites post low quality footage to save on bandwidth" - but that excuse does not stand up to scrutiny. Will that excuse continue to be peddled in the year 2317?
  39.  
  40. If the population accepts *genuine* but crippled CCTV footage without thinking anything suspicious of it then the population will not suspect anything suspicious when *fake* CCTV footage is presented in an equally crippled form. (Should that ever be required or desired.)
  41.  
  42. As much as possible we are forced to trust the people who are telling us the story. And each incident serves as "training" to get us to accept claims on trust (to accept dubious evidence as genuine).
  43.  
  44. This training happens automatically whenever someone reads about an incident like this and watches the CCTV yet doesn't feel that anything unusual is happening. The doubt has been successfully suppressed.
  45.  
  46. (But had a prankster or a magician released this footage everyone would be instantly suspicious.)
  47.  
  48. In the presentation I recently posted I pointed out that we are given footage along with a *suggestion* of what we're seeing. The suggestion with some visuals enables us to "imagine true" the claim.
  49.  
  50. Each time this happens - the audience gets a little better at "imagining true" a suggestion.
  51.  
  52. Since the population isn't born "already trained" everyone must learn from scratch. And so the process is ongoing. That's why we can observe it over and over as each new generation needs to be "trained".
  53.  
  54. That's what we are noticing - and it seems like we are the *only* people who have caught on! (How can it be that those who study psychology etc. haven't figured out these things?!)

  63. +nationalparksign . __ For many reasons that's a good clip!
  64.  
  65. As I was watching my thought was that the inability to scrub through the timeline makes it easy to miss important details and easier to deceive an audience.
  66.  
  67. That *must* be the point of taking away that ability.
  68.  
  69. A lot of people watching these Instagram clips must feel an urge to pause and replay portions of a clip. The ending of the clip helps to address that urge. Why so? Because although a person might sense something wrong with it - the goal is to get them to watch the entire clip without skipping backwards.
  70.  
  71. The "happy ending" tells them that their "hunch" was accurate (so there's no need to skip backwards). There's also a reduced need to skip back over it to watch for signs it was fake.
  72.  
  73. I am probably not explaining these things properly!
  74.  
  75. With Instagram it really does seem to be about training people to watch (at least small duration) clips without giving in to an urge to pause and skip backwards.
  76.  
  77. The clip is *tailored* to Instagram. The people who put it together were addressing these very things!
