About this Event
What will you believe? Join CAST Visiting Artist Jeanette Andrews for an experiential performance that culminates in a twist ending!
Audience engagement is critical to the final outcome of the piece, where Andrews invites you to examine your own perceptions through the lens of illusion, by combining acts of magic with a study of visual and social systems that guide human behavior.
The unforgettable experience was informed by research with MIT Faculty members Graham Jones and Arvind Satyanarayan and explores the cognitive science of belief polarization.
