Oh, the Things You Can Do Around Boston!

Tech Futures at the Boston Book Festival
The Boston Book Festival on October 24th will include
discussions on how we adapt our reading habits to new technology. The Cambridge-based E Ink
Corporation will be on-site to show off the latest in electronic books, and
guest panelists, including John Hodgman of Daily Show fame, will share insights at this free event. Music On My Brain
How does music evoke our emotions? Why does music play such an
important role in our lives? Join us for a noteworthy evening with
neuroscientist Daniel Levitin and artist Rosanne Cash. Levitin is a
rock star of science who has worked with Sting, David Bryne, and
others. Cash, who has been performing, recording, and writing songs for
30 years and is the daughter of the legendary Johnny Cash, underwent
brain surgery in 2007 and brings a unique perspective to music on our
minds.
Fall into Foliage
The air might be getting crisp, but the sun's (mostly) still
shining- perfect weather to take in the changing fall colors. The Blue Hills
Reservation is open for hiking, guided tours, and special events through the
season. |
