The Society for a Subliminal State is an organization started by Carrie Dashow and Jesse Pearlman Karlsberg. The Society for a Subliminal State agitates against the exclusive use of empirical evidence in the search for truth. It is an organization that believes there many different types of digging that may be productively undertaken.
The Society for a Subliminal State mirrors the form of a traditional historical society, contributing to the public discourse through a newsletter, a variety of public projects, a membership program, and this website. The Society believes that if you see it three times then it too may be the path to truth.
