During its first season, the NPR show Invisibilia showed us how science sheds light on what we individually experience; the second season will delve more often into how our lives are entwined, sometimes invisibly, with each other and the larger world. Ready for a preview? Give a listen to the audio below, but remember also to save the date for Thursday, June 16, at 8 p.m. That night, we're hosting a free listening party at Geekdom. Enjoy beer and light refreshments as we circle the chairs, turn up the volume, and blow some minds. (Too over-the-top? Try us.)
But wait--what is Invisibilia, anyway?
Invisibilia is Latin for "invisible things." The program explores the unseen forces that shape human behavior -- things like ideas, beliefs, assumptions and emotions -- interweaving narrative storytelling with scientific research that will ultimately make you see your own life differently. The show is co-hosted by a trio of NPR's award-winning journalists, Alix Spiegel, Lulu Miller and Hanna Rosin, who have roots at This American Life, Radiolab and The Atlantic.
This event is made possible by Alamo Beer Company!
