Jad Abumrad, MacArthur Fellow and host of the Peabody Award-winning Radiolab podcast, will give a presentation titled “Gut Churn” at 7:30 p.m. Saturday, April 9, at Ardrey Memorial Auditorium.
The multimedia lecture on the creative process is the result of a three-year investigation into the science, philosophy and art of uncertainty. Abumrad will address what it means to innovate, the use of negative feelings in the creative process and whether feelings get in the way or propel the creative process forward.
