Surprising what sticks.....

Its really odd when you think about what sticks in our minds, like peanut butter on the roof of your mouth. That may be an analogy that only makes sense to me. What I'm saying though is it marvels me that our mind filters as much info as it does on a daily basis. We catalog tons of images. I think that's why going to Times Square in NYC was one of the most overwhelming experiences of my life. I mean look at it. Confusion I mean, this is one of the simpler photos I found. Just google it and it is absolutely overwhelming. The five weeks I was in New York City were some of the most taxing days of my life. I'd come home mentally exhausted and felt as if my eyes were burned. Those weren't the days I was going to museums either. That's a surefire way to make me zombie out. Despite the constant bombardment, certain images and slogans will stick more that others. Like the Koolaid man. I was redoing my logo and it dawned on me, my logo may be similar. Look above. I freaked. So I compared and determined it was not enough of a tie to really think it was highly influenced. Weird nonetheless. You just never know what really sticks. Makes me wonder if anyone really ever has anything original. To tell you the truth, I don't know the answer either. I'm ok with that.
