Alexandra Horowitz - On Looking: Eleven Walks with Expert Eyes
Jan 15 2013 7:00 pm
Jan 15 2013 8:00 pm
In these eleven accounts of walks, the Barnard psychology professor and author of Inside a Dog shows how richly textured an ordinary experience truly is—and how many of these sensory details we miss. At any given moment we filter out the bulk of the information streaming around us; Horowitz offers ways to tune into the myriad sights, sounds, and smells.
