BMW Guggenheim Lab

Image via CrunchBaseOnce in a while on PlanCast an event shows up that looks like everyone in town is going to. This BMW Guggenheim Lab event is the same way. And it seems to go on for six weeks. There are lots of movies, first thing I noticed.

And it is a topic of great interest to me, the idea of reimagining this amazing city.

Wait, it's not six weeks, more like 10 weeks. This goes on and on and on.

New York City

I think visually. At high school this dude who was one year senior to me said he remembered names but forgot faces. I thought that was the weirdest thing to say. At college my first good friend Beth asked me, "But if you know so many languages, what is the language you think in?" I was confused. But I don't think in languages, I thought. Movies speak to me at that level. Movies are great mind food for minds that think primarily visually.
