Death by a Thousand Images argues that trauma can be delivered visually through repetition. One image may not wound deeply, but thousands of distorted, degrading, fear-based, or comparison-driven images can erode coherence, dull dissonance, and retrain the nervous system through accumulation.

Discovery of Microtrauma as Perceptual Distortion traces how subtle visual and symbolic wrongness revealed a form of trauma too small to register as catastrophe but too repetitive to remain harmless. It argues that repeated perceptual contradiction can dull dissonance, erode coherence, and retrain the nervous system to normalize distortion.

The Micro-Trauma Effect explains how repetition, contradiction, and symbolic injury can gradually erode emotional coherence without a single catastrophic event. Within Psychomedia, it reframes media repetition as a slow conditioning system that dulls dissonance, normalizes contradiction, and trains the nervous system to endure distortion rather than resolve it.
