Casey Anthony Trial: Crying Real Emotion This Morning?
Is it real? Is she faking emotion? Is she showing a "cry face?"
I never saw actual tears, she wiped her right eye more than the left, and wiped her nose as much as her right eye. This is unusual. Normally we cry tears equally in both eyes, and for there to be nasal discharge there would be a great deal of crying.
Furthermore she begins wiping her eyes from the corner and along the bottom of the eyelash and outward beyond the eyelash- suggesting there would be a large tear for there to still be moisture, most people wipe the cheek, especially women with eye makeup along the bottom of their eye lash.
The "cry face" has two basic styles:
- Extreme stress in the forehead and/or between the eyebrows, lifting of the cheeks and opening of the mouth to some degree.
- The solemn cry is where there is little or no movement in any facial muscles, usually done when emotionally drained.
Why do we cry? Sadness, stress, even intense 'good' emotions. All these emotions produce chemicals in the body and crying is a way to put the body in balance. These emotions can, and often spill over into other parts of the body, hand trembles, movement in the legs, shifting of the torso. These types of emotions also ebb and flow at varying levels through the body- With Casey we do not see any changes, and she appears like a statute except to wipe her ears or her nose... If she was experiencing emotion we would expect to see some shifting, movement in her forehead or eyes.
It is extremely unlikely she was crying real tears, and the emotion was faked.

New Software Deciphers Human Emotions, Facial Expressions; nViso Uses Science to Revolutionize Marketing Process

New Software Deciphers Human Emotions, Facial Expressions; nViso Uses Science to Revolutionize Marketing Process
Understanding Customer Emotions Just Got Easier; Neuroscience Meets Web 2.0 to Conceive a Technology That Is Able to Track and Decipher Facial Micro-Expressions and Eye Movements in Real Time, Using a Standard Webcam in Home Environments
LAUSANNE, SWITZERLAND--(Marketwire - Jun 8, 2011) - nViso co-founder Dr. Matteo Sorci today unveiled facial imaging software that is able to accurately detect and decode facial micro-expressions and eye movements, at the ESOMAR Conference on Neuroscience in Amsterdam, June 8, 2011.
The proprietary technology uses these expressions and movements to precisely interpret human emotions, allowing Marketers to track and understand the emotional effects triggered by products and brand messages at levels of accuracy previously not possible.
"Armed with understanding of consumer emotions and a direct path to the subconscious, the marketing community will have access to emotion metrics that are far more precise than surveys, but without the complexity of monitoring brain waves. Superior metrics help businesses to develop more engaging products, enhance the usability experience and launch more effective campaigns at faster rates and less cost," says Tim Llewellynn, nViso co-founder.
Emerging as the pioneer in emotion video analytics, Swiss-based nViso uses artificial intelligence and machine learning systems to decipher human emotions, providing a cost-effective and scalable alternative to brain imaging or medical equipment used in neuro-marketing.
"Many Fast Moving Consumer Goods (FMCG) companies have been experimenting with facial recognition technology in retail research settings. nViso's software adds a critical dimension to the marketing process based on exact emotional intelligence gathered in real-time," says Tim Llewellynn.
Only using a standard webcam or similar video equipment, nViso tracks over 143 different facial points to identify a range of features and relates them to models developed with facial databases.
The technology is based on theoretical work by Dr. Paul Ekman which demonstrates that universal emotions are precisely and sub-consciously revealed by minor changes in micro-expressions in the face. For instance, someone who is surprised commonly raises their eyebrows, opens their mouth and drops their lower jaw.
The search for ways to capture and analyze consumer emotions has been a research priority for years. Ventures into neuro-marketing have been difficult to integrate into existing research frameworks for broader use. Up until today, it has been difficult to link the measurement of emotions with analytics in a scalable way that can be put into a daily business practice.
"Emotion video analytics combined with data-derived insights is a huge opportunity for marketing organizations to harness. By understanding customer emotions through technology that deciphers and decodes facial expressions, business leaders have a tool that creates new competitive advantages," says Roberto Longhin, Marketing Projects Lead from Accenture Media Agency, Milan, Italy.
nViso is the brainchild of Matteo Sorci and Tim Llewellynn. The company received funding from The Swiss National Science Foundation in 2009 and instantly had the marketing community abuzz. Since, nViso has been approached by social networks, advertising agencies and FMCGs for collaboration.
nViso also anticipates its technology will be used in the medical, automotive and security industries, where combining computer technology and psychology is imperative.

Media Outlets Please Stop: Navy Ship That Buried Bin Laden Stops in Hawaii
Navy Ship That Buried Bin Laden Stops in Hawaii
I do not often comment on things not directly related to deception, emotions, and psychology but feel I must.
This is irresponsible (and not newsworthy) and is placing at risk all those assigned to this ship. The mission plan was to bury bin Laden at sea so there wouldn't be an area where followers could in shrine. By reporting on this ship the media is making it a terrorist target of those wanting to harm military targets. Let us not forget the USS Cole, the Navy destroyer bombed by al Qaeda in Yemen in 2000.◦

Casey Anthony Trial- Police Interview at Universal Studios Reveals Undisclosed Clues to What Happened
http://www.youtube.com/view_play_list?p=4935644AF2EA672C
Listen to the full interview. Get beyond the lies, ignore the pressure and what the investigator are saying (beyond the main assertion(s)), and and listen closely to her statements and it is clear to me:
- She did not dispose of the body, she is very clear about last seeing her across the street from her boyfriends residence.
- She is clear she doesn't know where her daughter is currently located (at the time of the interview).
- Whenever she is asked what happened, she avoids the questions by saying that she doesn't know where she is- where they are really asking how did she die.
- She let's it slip that she is scared of who disposed of the body (if you believe the first bullet).
- It is clear when she is reaching for a plausible explanation like, why she wanted to come to Universal (distribute pictures) and getting a call from her daughter yesterday.
- Ignore any statements Casey makes where she goes on and feels comfortable enough to speak at length about any subject; when she is under stress she gets frustrated and responds in one sentence- simple responses- while under pressure she is unlike some liars where they feel they need to explain the lies further- this is a big sign to her personality and her belief she can manipulate others. Towards the end of the interview, she lies freely and speaks at length when asked a question, this is opposite of how she reacts when she is not under pressure.
- "I'm never going to be able to forgive myself" is the truth
Hindsight is twenty-twenty... but the investigator makes the mistake of saying, "everything you tell us is a lie" which is NEVER the case, people tell half truths, people when deceitful will attempt to make up a lie that is as close as possible to the truth.
Watch the trial live: http://www.examiner.com/crime-in-national/watch-casey-anthony-trial-live-online-video
You can also tell a great deal about a defendant by the way the attorneys interact with them (including guilt and innocence), I would suggest checking in at 8:50 in the morning when she is brought into the courtroom.
