Static, censored words in the season 8 trailer, and relation to the theme
There are some words that are censored in the trailer, but you can actually still identify the words if you look closely enough, such as the spacing in between words, and the length of each word.
Amazingly, they're using a trick to censor these words, where you can only see the words when the static is playing, but if you see it frame by frame, all you'd see is static. An example here.
This trick might be relevant to the plot, where experiences are linked to the playing of a video, and hence becomes a taboo if someone records in N corp; they are replaced with those experience cans. On the other hand, memories are linked to snapshots in time, photographs are allowed in N corp, but they show much less things as compared to a video. I.e. Meursalt's insistence as to why memories are different from experiences - experiences are so much more than memories.
With that being said...what do you think are those censored words in the trailer?
