Ann Sussman will talk about about her new book Cognitive Architecture, 2nd edition, (2021) co-authored with Justin B Hollander, which reveals the technologies, including eye tracking, that show how subliminal human behaviors direct our experience of the built environment more than most realize. The book explains how new understandings in psychology reframe the history of modern architecture, as well, and its connection to veteran trauma post-WWI.

The talk, over Zoom, is open to all, sponsored by the Concord-Carlisle school district’s Adult & Community Education.
