Author, scientist, and animal welfare advocate Temple Grandin brings a unique perspective to the IMA’s Planet Indy series. She describes visual ways of processing experience and how her own thinking as a person living with Autism led her to become the designer of more humane livestock handling facilities throughout North America. The animals in these facilities are calm and comfortable; they die a swift, painless death. The result is meat that many experts believe to be healthier for the people who consume it.
The video was not quite what I thought it would be. I definitely agree that we need to be more aware of our thinking and also to swap around our thinking for different occasion. On a recent visit to the Van Gogh museum I found just as many people reading about a painting as looking at the painting - it was a bit of a shocker. http://thedossier.nl/observations-at-an-art-gallery/
Lovely!
