About this event

Local author David Landes of The Friends of Attention will be at The Garden District Book Shop on November 12About this Event

Local author David Landes of The Friends of Attention will be at The Garden District Book Shop on November 12 to discuss their book Attensity!: A Manifesto of the Attention Liberation Movement. A rallying cry to fight the commodification of human attention, with the tools we need to reclaim our humanity, by a group of writers, artists, and activists in the vanguard of the movement

Drawing on a rich legacy of critical intellectuals and the creative wisdom of diverse traditions, Attensity! calls on us to come together to defeat the greedy dehumanizing forces of brute instrumentalization—and re-enchant the world.

The evening will begin at 6:00 PM. Andes will engage with guests about his work and share insights. The event is free and open to the public but interested parties may RSVP ahead of time on Eventbrite. Attensity!: A Manifesto of the Attention Liberation Movem
