Ep. #207: Seeing Differently: Curiosity, Creativity & Dyslexia, with Rebecca Kamen

02 Nov 2023

Description

You wouldn’t know it, given her passion for research and accumulation of impressive academic credentials, but one thing artist and educator Rebecca Kamen doesn't do very well is read. Only as an adult did she come to understand that she lives with dyslexia – a challenge in making the connection between the letters on a page and their meaning and sound – a challenge in reading. As we come to understand the human brain better, we’re also coming to see that dyslexia, once uniformly regarded as a learning disability, is also a lens for seeing things differently. Think “neurodivergent” not “disabled." I was delighted when Rebecca, the deeply curious & creative person who happens to have dyslexia, reached out to me with an offer to explore all three. Learn more about Rebecca Kamen's work on her website: rebeccakamen.com Theme music by Sean Balick; "The Summit", by K2, via Blue Dot Sessions.
