What if we could remember the future and anticipate the past? How would that understanding of time affect our sense of free will, destiny, perception, and memory? What if the future isn’t fixed but fluid?
Brainwave 2018 poses these elemental questions as we expand our notion of the future to include our layered experiences of time itself. Neuroscientist and New York Times bestselling author David Eagleman joins the Rubin as the first Brainwave Fellow, curating a series of talks, films, and experiences to explore time’s impact on our brains, everyday life, and perception of the future.
Brainwave is supported in part by public funds from the New York City Department of Cultural Affairs in partnership with the City Council.
