This special presentation with the Metropolitan Museum of Art illuminated the complex and often surprising relationship between vision and the brain. In a wide-ranging conversation, Oliver Sacks and Robert Krulwich shed light on the interplay between what the eye sees and how the mind perceives it. Touching on topics including stereo vision, how the blind can be paradoxically hyper visual, and the mechanisms of visual hallucinations, this program added a new chapter to Sacks’ ongoing exploration into the fascinating mysteries of the brain and human experience.
