Why am I here?

I am here because I love learning how things work from the inside out. So the psychology behind advertisement and the design of images that are meant to sell people a product or an idea is very interesting to me. In a way the backbone of an advertisement is all about manipulating people, so in a sense it is kind of a dark subject, but I think understanding how people get into the heads of customers will on one side make me a better persuader and on the other hand prevent me from falling for tricks in the modern market.
