As noted in my updated post: admission for the even Thursday (7:30 pm start, 6:30 doors) at Galapagos is free, but those who want to ensure a seat should RSVP to gargi[at]galapagosartspace.com.
The title of my talk is "Why Atlantic Yards Makes Me Angry (and Makes Me a Better Journalist)".
Note that Galapagos is much more like a nightclub than, say, a bookstore or library lecture hall. There will be libations, and entertainment beyond the three "Get Smart" lecturers, as noted below.
Thursday August 11, Get Smart
Galapagos Art Space presents Get Smart, a salon-style and sensorial exploration of the brilliant age-of-ideas we live within. Get Smart trumpets the best thinking across an array of topics and frames them in an entire night out with beautiful trapeze artists, cabaret performers, live music, and wonderful fruit or vegetable with tincture based cocktails. Each evening will feature three dynamic 15-minute lectures, punctuated by performances from Galapagos’ Saturday-night-sensation, FLOATING KABARETTE!

Malia Mason Assistant Professor of Management at Columbia University, social psychologist and TEDx speakerMalia Mason specializes in understanding tactics that people use to make sense of others and how the brain mediates social interactions. Her second line of research identifies strategies for managing attention and coping with indecision, and explains why the mind is driven to wander despite heroic attempts to task it.
