Andrea describes unusual conditions in New York—smoke-filled yellow skies that make breathing difficult and floods requiring sandbags—prompting reflection on what life would be like if such events became everyday. Ahead of teaching a class on “landscapes of the mind,” she discusses the “inner GPS,” noting it as a metaphor for brain cells that fire in relation to movement through the world, and argues this inner capacity is more wondrous than human-made technologies. She frames understanding the inner GPS as tuning into the body, aligning with what one truly cares about, and considering how attention, communication, and caring for one another can shift shared paths. She invites people to explore these ideas through science, philosophy, and care by joining her in Brooklyn on the twenty-first, weather permitting.
