The title, "Subliminal Erotica" is about the idea of looking for subliminal messages in advertising. Theory is that if you look close enough in many ads, especially print ads, you'll find many subliminal messages. In the 70's this became a short lived national pass time when the book "Subliminal Seduction" was published; searching for coded messages in ads. Cigarette ads had tiny little skulls and demons in them, playing on a smoker's supposed "death wish". Booze ads were notorious for having tiny naked women and sex scenes embedded within the artwork. Usually found in the ice - which was usually not an actual photograph but a painting, so someone was putting these things in ads for our subconscious to pick up on, so we'd feel "inspired" enough to buy the product - perhaps without even knowing why.
To take it a step further, we here at Subliminal Erotica headquarters feel that you can find almost anything you want to find if you simply look hard enough at virtually anything. Cloud formations, lines on tree bark, patterns on toast. Stuff looks like stuff. Find what you want to find.
Some spend their lives looking for the bad in everything and focus on the bad they find, so they're, of course, miserable. They've trained themselves, or they've been trained, to expect to see devils and evil everywhere they look. Others have become good at finding good in everything they see. Truth is, there's good and bad everywhere. We choose our focus. And our focus influences our reality.
