There was a fair amount of laughter at my sister’s 50th birthday party when I’d Photoshop’ed a picture of her reading to me as a toddler and placed it on a photo-board with other images of her from her first 50 years. The actual book she was reading to me was about a bunny…so I thought it would be humorous to find an old Playboy magazine cover on the ‘net from about the same era (1956-ish) and place it over the cover of the book. Even I was amazed at how realistic it looked and how simple it was to do. It allowed me to lend credence to my claims that my big sister started to corrupt me from a very early age.
But if it’s so easy for *me* to blur the truth, what about the experts who are focused on persuading us to buy, and what new techniques are they using?
