Westworld Tour

Is our identity anything more than our memories of the past? If something can suffer, is it alive?

This tour will examine the philosophical questions addressed in the hit HBO series “Westworld” and draws connections to the art in our galleries. Conceptualized in collaboration with “Westworld” scientific advisor and Rubin fellow David Eagleman, this hour-long journey through the Museum will leave you questioning how much you really understand about your own mind and give you glimpses into new ways of knowing.
