SUMMARY:OBSERVER Screening and Exploration
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a film screening of Observer at the SECU Daily Planet Theater at the North Carolina Museum Natural Sciences followed by exploration outside with Museum educators. \nThe first 30 people to register and attend will be eligible to receive an Observer kit of items hand-picked by the filmmaking team. The kit includes a homemade red square for viewing the world\, plus a hand lens\, notebook\, watercolor kit\, pencil\, sand timer\, dice\, and a guide to observation games. Come hone your observational powers and exercise your curiosity! \nReserve your observation kit \nAfter your select the quantity (max 2) on the registration page\, you must select the date and time (May 17) to complete registration. \nIn 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\, and asks them simply to describe what they see. \nWhat unfolds is a deep exploration and celebration of the power of observation: what happens when you find new ways to sense & perceive the world around you? With customary whimsy and a small painted red square that Cheney brings on every journey\, the film is an invitation to viewers to find beauty and meaning in even the most quotidian of locales.
