See Yourself Sensing
Madeline Schwartzman is a New York City writer, filmmaker, and architect whose work explores human narratives and the human sensorium through social art, book writing, curating and experimental video making. She is a long-term Adjunct Professor at Barnard College and a Part-Time Associate Teaching Professor at Parsons: The New School for Design where she teaches architectural design, drawing, video production and time-based media. Schwartzman has received grants and awards for her work in film, sculpture and architecture, including a residency at the American Academy in Rome. Her films and videos have screened at festivals in the U.S. and abroad, including the Ann Arbor Film Festival, the Walker Art Center, and the Morbid Anatomy Museum in New York City.
Schwartzman’s books See Yourself Sensing: Redefining Human Perception and See Yourself X: Human Futures Expanded explore the future of the human head, using fashion, design and technology to speculate on how we might extend ourselves into space.
