Abstract
Lawrence Weschler is exploring how we see the world and untangling the ways we engage with our visual culture. In this talk, Weschler will consider a spectrum of convergent effects, from the tendency of humans to see patterns where none exist, to the impact of influence homage, allusion, quotation and appropriation, through to outright plagiarism.
