Seminar on the topic of “Subliminal Messages” organized by BSSE-F08: |
| The students of BSSE-F08, Section A, Department of Computer Science and Software Engineering, Faculty of Basic and Applied Sciences, International Islamic University Islamabad, organized a seminar on the topic of “Subliminal Messages” on 23rd of April, 2012 under the supervision of Ms. Zakia Jalil, in Fatima Block Auditorium, Female campus, IIUI. It was organized as a course assignment for the course “Professional Practices” taught by Ms. Zakia Jalil, Lecturer, Department of Computer Science and Software Engineering. Subliminal Messages are those sensory messages that are below an individual’s threshold for conscious perception. They are hidden messages that are made to act on your subconscious mind. They are an attempt to make you think or want something without you even realizing it. These hidden messages can be transmitted by animations, in pictures within pictures, in themes, or even in slogans. Nowadays, subliminal messages are being used in advertisement of many products to influence customers or to increase sales; they are being used in movies, cartoons, and in other television programs. Subliminal slogans are being used in political speeches, and in newspaper articles. This seminar was intended to make people aware about the existence and affects of Subliminal Messages on human brain and behavior, and their impact on our society, by inviting the two qualified and experienced speakers that could share their thoughts and experiences with the seminar participants.
The first guest speaker Mr. Hamid Mumtaz, an Economic Activist, a Researcher, a Blogger, and a Telecom Engineer, delivered the most interesting and informative speech about Subliminal Messages.

At the end, the students organizing this seminar dedicated it to their course teacher Ms. Zakia Jalil and there was special dedication to the Pak Army soldiers stuck in Siachin and victims of the recent plane crash (Bhoja airplane) near Islamabad, and a congregational duaa was offered for the deceased victims and their families.
