The Rap Guide to Consciousness

“Peer-reviewed rapper” Baba Brinkman explores the scientific study of consciousness in his latest hip-hop comedy, fresh from the 2017 Edinburgh Fringe (see reviews below).

Baba’s brain consists of roughly 80 billion neurons with trillions of connections, and none of them has any clue that he exists. And yet somehow those cells come together to produce a steady stream of ill rhymes, laughs, and mind-blowing scientific findings. Come and find out how.

Join us for the New York and US Premier and album launch party! Reception 7pm, show 8pm. 21+

Learn more about the science from project science advisor Anil Seth’s TED Talk.

Made with support from the Sackler Centre for Consciousness Studies, the Sandpiper Fund, the Schein Foundation, the Anthropocene Institute, and the Canadian Core for Neuroethics.
