I explore the nature of perception
and how different kinds of perceiving
create different kinds of knowing
and understanding.
Here are three questions
drawn from my work.
Rather than try to figure them out,
I'm going to ask you to consider for a moment
the intuitions
and the gut instincts
that are going through your head and your heart
as you look at them.
Words can have colors and emotions,
numbers, shapes and personalities.
The world is richer,
vaster
than it too often seems to be.
I hope that I've given you the desire
to learn to see the world with new eyes.
