Brainwave. Memory. Committing the great American novel to memory
Description
Actor Scott Shepherd knows all 47,094 words in F. Scott Fitzgerald's The Great Gatsby off by heart. And in the right order. He has 'read' the work countless times as part of Elevator Repair Service's highly acclaimed dramatic presentation of Gatz, shortly to be revived at the Public Theater. The neuroscientist John Kubie explores the process of memorization and how it affects interpretation and his ability to recall his shopping list.
