SUMMARY:Vision As Contemplation: Meditation\, Art\, and Neuroscience in Conversation
DESCRIPTION:MIT MuseumBuilding E28 314 Main St.\, CambridgeThursday\, February 16\, 6 – 7:30 p.m. \nThe event is free\, pre registration is required. Register here.  \nSara Lazar\, Associate Researcher in Psychiatry\, Massachusetts General Hospital and Assistant Professor in Psychology at Harvard Medical SchoolThe Venerable Tenzin Priyadarshi\, Director of the Dalai Lama Center for Ethics and Transformative Values at MITSeth Riskin\, Artist and Manager of the MIT Museum Studio and Compton GalleryPawan Sinha\, Professor of Vision and Computational Neuroscience in the Department of Brain and Cognitive Sciences at MIT \nThe use of the visual image (found or created) as an introspection device to control and learn about the workings of the brain and mind are well known across meditation practices. Art and neuroscience take a different approach\, evidencing perception in the images they produce.Within the frame of ‘contemplation techniques\,’ what connections can we see across these practices\, and how can they be probed and strengthened? \nThis participatory program features large-scale images developed as contemplation devices by alumni of the MIT course Vision in Art and Neuroscience. In a group discussion engaging the audience\, we will explore subjective experiences stimulated by the images\, discovering connections across disciplines\, with each other\, and between ourselves and the world we experience.
