Echoes of an Angel
When Ben Underwood became blind at the age of two, anyone would have thought he faced a life full of hardship and uphill challenges—a world full of things he’d never be able to see and activities he’d never be able to enjoy. But as far as his mom, Aquanetta Gordon, was concerned, nothing was impossible for Ben . . . and so he accomplished the incredible. Known as “the boy who could see with sound,” Ben mastered human echolocation—the ability to detect the size, shape and location of objects through the reflection of sound waves. By clicking his tongue and “seeing” the waves, Ben could ride his bike, shoot baskets, identify objects, and even play video games. Some called it a ...
Towards Embodied Performance
Towards Embodied Performance invites directors and other generative performance makers to experiment with making their own original, visually stunning, sonically immersive, and physically rigorous embodied performance. Through historical context, the author’s 30-plus years of experience, and original interviews with leading theatre artists, this book sets the stage for a new generation of artists building boundary-breaking work. Directors are often categorized into one of only two frameworks: the Stanislavskian director, whose method is based on text analysis and character wants and needs, and the “auteur” director, whose work might focus on visual spectacle at the expense of text or c...

Religion and history collide with critical commentary.
Deviate
World-renowned neuroscientist Beau Lotto reveals the truths of human perception and devises a cognitive toolkit for how to succeed in a world of uncertainty. Perception is the foundation of human experience, but few of us understand how our own perception works. By revealing the startling truths about the brain and perception, Beau Lotto shows that the next big innovation is not a new technology: it is a new way of seeing. In his first major book, Beau Lotto draws on over a decade of pioneering research to show how our brains play tricks on us. With an innovative combination of case studies and optical- and perception-illusion exercises, DEVIATE will revolutionise the way you see the world. With this new understanding of how the brain works and its perceptive trickery, we can apply these insights to every aspect of life and work. DEVIATE is not just an engaging look into the neuroscience of thought, behaviour and creativity: it is a call to action, enlisting readers in their own journey of self-discovery.

Percezioni
««Beau Lotto è lo scrittore ideale per un libro popolare sulle neuroscienze della percezione. Ha già dimostrato di essere un divulgatore della scienza estremamente coinvolgente e audace. Soprattutto, è un ben noto neuroscienziato che conosce bene ciò di cui parla. In questo libro vi convincerà del fatto che l’esperienza della visione è una cosa ben più misteriosa ed eccitante di quel che sembra».» Christopher Frith, Professore di Neuroscienze, University College, Londra ««Beau Lotto è un narratore potente che unisce la scienza di laboratorio con le arti creative in maniera inaspettata, ricavandone intuizioni utilissime». » «Wired» - David Rowan Per secoli i filosofi hanno...
