This Climate Week NYC, The New York Climate Exchange, in partnership with Stony Brook University & the Science Communication Lab/Wonder Collaborative, will be sharing the new film OBSERVER. After the screening, attendees will have the opportunity to connect with each other & the world around them & participate in activities that apply the learnings of the film.
In OBSERVER, filmmaker Ian Cheney embarks on an experiment in which he brings a series of keen-eyed observers - scientists, artists, a hunter - to a range of locations around the world, often without telling them where they are going, & asks them simply to describe what they see.
What unfolds is a deep exploration & celebration of the power of observation: what happens when you find new ways to sense & perceive the world around you? With customary whimsy & a small painted red square that Cheney brings on every journey, the film is an invitation to viewers to find beauty & meaning in even the most quotidian of locales.

This event is made possible by the Gordon & Betty Moore Foundation, & the Schmidt Sciences & University of California, Santa Cruz Science Communication Catalyst Grant.
