Michael Pollan joins us at Congregation Beth Elohim to discuss How to Change Your Mind with Burkhard Bilger, a staff writer at The New Yorker.
Each ticket includes a pre-signed paperback copy of How to Change Your Mind, which will be available for pickup at the event. Please note that there will not be a signing following the event.

About How to Change Your Mind
A brilliant and brave investigation into the medical and scientific revolution taking place around psychedelic drugs–and the spellbinding story of his own life-changing psychedelic experiences

When Michael Pollan set out to research how LSD and psilocybin (the active ingredient in magic mushrooms) are being used to provide relief to people suffering from difficult-to-treat conditions such as depression, addiction and anxiety, he did not intend to write what is undoubtedly his most personal book. But upon discovering how these remarkable substances are improving the lives not only of the mentally ill but also of healthy people coming to grips with the challenges of everyday life, he decided to explore the landscape of the mind in the first person as well as the third. Thus began a singular adventure into various altered states of consciousness, along with a dive deep into both the latest brain science and the thriving underground community of psychedelic therapists. Pollan sifts the historical record to separate the truth about these mysterious drugs from the myths that have surrounded them since the 1960s, when a handful of psychedelic evangelists inadvertently catalyzed a powerful backlash against what was then a promising field of research.

A unique and elegant blend of science, memoir, travel writing, history, and medicine, How to Change Your Mind is a triumph of participatory journalism. By turns dazzling and edifying, it is the gripping account of a journey to an exciting and unexpected new frontier in our understanding of the mind, the self, and our place in the world. The true subject of Pollan’s “mental travelogue” is not just psychedelic drugs but also the eternal puzzle of human consciousness and how, in a world that offers us both suffering and joy, we can do our best to be fully present and find meaning in our lives.

Michael Pollan is the author of eight books, including How to Change Your Mind, Cooked, Food Rules, In Defense of Food, The Omnivore’s Dilemma and The Botany of Desire, all of which were New York Times bestsellers. A longtime contributor to the New York Times Magazine, he also teaches writing at Harvard and the University of California, Berkeley where he is the John S. and James L. Knight Professor of Science Journalism. In 2010, Time magazine named him one of the one hundred most influential people in the world.

Burkhard Bilger has been a staff writer at The New Yorker since 2000, where his work has focused on food, science, and American subcultures. His pieces have included portraits of ginseng poachers, deep cave explorers, child bullriders, and a cheese-making nun, and have been anthologized nine times in the Best American series. Bilger’s first book, Noodling for Flatheads (Scribner, 2000) was a finalist for the PEN/Martha Albrand Award, and he is at work on a book about his grandfather’s experiences in WWII to be published by Alfred A. Knopf. Bilger is a Branford Fellow at Yale University.

DOORS AT 7PM
CONVERSATION AT 8PM
STARGAZING AT 9PM

Scientific Controversies (Sci Con) is a series of conversations between scientists on unsolved quandaries, hosted by Director of Sciences Janna Levin.

Black holes could have been relegated to the mathematics of relativity and remained a physical absurdity. They were the outcome of a thought experiment, a fantastical imagining. Imagine matter crushed to a point. Don’t ask how. Just imagine that. But nature thought of a way to make them by killing off massive stars. These dead stars collapse under their own weight so catastrophically that even light gets dragged down the hole casting a shadow on the sky. That shadow is the event horizon, left behind as an archeological record while the stellar material continues to fall to an unknown fate. We have never seen a black hole before. No telescope of any kind has ever taken a picture of a black hole before. Today (April 10th) the world paused in awe for the reveal of humanity’s first image of a black hole event horizon taken by a composite telescope the size of the whole Earth.

Director of Sciences Janna Levin invites Dr. Sheperd Doeleman, director of the Event Horizon Telescope, and theoretical physicist Prof. Andrew Strominger to consider the staggering implications of event horizons from astrophysics to the theory of everything.

Join us after the conversation for stargazing with the Amateur Astronomers Association of New York in the garden and DJ Black Helmet’s set of rare grooves.

Sheperd Doeleman is the Director of Event Horizon Telescope and the Assistant Director for Observation at Harvard’s Black Hole Initiative.

Andrew Strominger is a theoretical physicist and Director of Harvard’s Center for the Fundamental Laws of Nature.

This project is supported by Science Sandbox, a Simons Foundation initiative dedicated to engaging everyone with the process of science.

ABOUT LION BABE ✹

LION BABE is a New York bred funk and soul duo comprised of multidisciplinary artist Jillian Hervey and producer/DJ Lucas Goodman, (also known as Astro Raw.) The pair are known for their unique sound and look and associate themselves with the term ‘futuristic nostalgia’ to describe their genre. LION BABE blends vintage colors with modern sonics. They started with their break out single “Treat Me Like Fire” in 2012, which quickly garnered attention across the globe.

Since then, the duo has been steadily rising, and have released one LP titled “Begin” (2016 with Universal) including “Wonder Woman” produced by Pharrell Williams, along with “Jump Hi” featuring Childish Gambino. They followed with their mix tape “Sunjoint” featuring JunglePussy, Raury and Angel Haze. Jillian also co – wrote and sang “Hourglass” on the Grammy-nominated Disclosure album “Caracal.” They are known for their magnetic performances, both at intimate fashion and art parties as well as major festivals like Glastonbury and the main stage at Coachella. They have also performed on TV for the The Soul Train Awards and the Today Show, (where they performed their cover of Tom Jones’ hit “She’s a Lady,” which was also used for H&M.

In 2018, LION BABE released singles “Rockets” featuring Moe Moks, “Honey Dew” and “Hit the Ceiling” which was featured on HBO’s hit show “Insecure.” The duo also wrote an original song “Just Me” for Season 3 of “Insecure” which is featured on the show’s soundtrack (curated by Raphael Saadiq.)

This year they have released covers of classics “Get Into The Party Life” by Little Beaver and Carly Simon’s “Why.” This has all led up to their new album “Cosmic Wind” featuring pre – released records “The Wave” featuring Leikeli47 and their newest single “Western World” featuring Wu-Tang Clan’s own “Raekwon.”

“Cosmic Wind” is a record that showcases the bands growth as artists and musicians, and is rooted in themes of transformation and inevitable change.

dexterously maneuvering between hard rock, neo soul, funk, and more, the heavy consistently put out tracks that refuse to be compartmentalized, yet are held together by an infectious unifying groove. the british rockers have likely infiltrated your homes already, prominently appearing on countless soundtracks, from their breakthrough single “how you like me now” to their hit single “what makes a good man.” now with their 5th studio album, ‘sons’ is set to release on 5/17, the band will play in support the album at Elsewhere on 6/11.

No strangers to the Bandshell stage, The National returns for a benefit concert this year, along with indie rocker Courtney Barnett.
About this Event
This performance is SOLD OUT.

Both individually and collectively The National’s members have been involved in countless artistic, charitable, and socio-political pursuits. The group released A Lot of Sorrow documenting their collaboration with installation artist Ragnar Kjartansson, which took place at MOMA’s PS1 and saw the band play their song “Sorrow” for six hours in front of a live audience. The group is behind the Red Hot benefit albums Dark Was The Night and Day Of The Dead, and the compilation boxed set titled 7-Inches for Planned Parenthood. Band members have received a Golden Globe Nomination for work on the score of the 2015 film Revenant; founded or played a major part in Boston Calling, MusicNow, Eaux Claires, and Haven Festivals; participated heavily in both Obama Presidential Campaigns; and much more.

2013 also saw the theatrical release of their documentary, Mistaken For Strangers, set to the backdrop of the band’s 2010 release High Violet. The documentary was chosen to premiere on the opening night of the 2013 Tribeca Film Festival followed by a theatrical release in the U.S. and worldwide distribution. Over their 16-year career the band has sold more than 1.7 million albums in the U.S. alone. The National consists of Matt Berninger (vocals) fronting two pairs of brothers: Aaron (guitar, bass, piano) and Bryce Dessner (guitar, piano), and Scott (bass, guitar) and Bryan Devendorf (drums).

Courtney Barnett is one of the most distinctive and compelling voices in indie rock, a singer-songwriter who mixes deeply insightful observations with devastating self-assessment. With countless awards in her home of Australia as well as Grammy and BRIT nominations, fawning press and an adoring audiences, Barnett’s rise to global prominence feels both unprecedented and important. 2017 saw the release of the wonderful album Lotta Sea Lice, an introspective but beautiful album of duets with Kurt Vile and a gorgeous place-holder while we awaited the release of her world-weary-but-fierce sophomore solo album Tell Me How You Really Feel in 2018.

For the US debut of Carl Cox’s PURE, he’s selected the breathtaking open-air sanctuary that is The Brooklyn Mirage to host this incredible event. An immersive space with 360-degree projections and amazing views of the NYC skyline, The Brooklyn Mirage is the perfect place for this one-of-a-kind night.

Curated by Carl Cox, Eric Powell of Bush Records, and Richie McNeill of Hardware, PURE is focused on the celebration of techno and house music, delivered with incredible sound in an old-fashioned, no nonsense, no fluff rave atmosphere. After its first year in Ibiza, where it won best event of the summer in 2017, PURE expanded to Australia, taking the series global. Carl Cox, Josh Wink, Worthy and Eric Powell will sound track this special event, one that has become a must attend in Australia and New Zealand in part due to its reputation where the audience can make a special connection with the DJs.

ABOUT ANI DIFRANCO

Widely considered a feminist icon, Grammy winner Ani DiFranco is the mother of the DIY movement, being one of the first artists to create her own record label in 1990. While she has been known as the “Little Folksinger,” her music has embraced punk, funk, hip hop, jazz, soul, electronica and even more distant sounds. Her collaborators have included everyone from Utah Phillips to legendary R&B saxophonist Maceo Parker to Prince. She has shared stages with Bob Dylan, Bruce Springsteen, Pete Seeger, Kris Kristofferson, Greg Brown, Billy Bragg, Michael Franti, Chuck D., and many more. Her most recent album Binary was released in June 2017 on Righteous Babe Records and her memoir No Walls and the Recurring Dream will be released on May 7, 2019 by Viking Books.

Rejecting the major label system has given her significant creative freedom. She has referenced her staunchly-held independence in song more than once, including in “The Million You Never Made” (Not a Pretty Girl), which discusses the act of turning down a lucrative contract, “The Next Big Thing” (Not So Soft), which describes an imagined meeting with a label head-hunter who evaluates the singer based on her looks, and “Napoleon” (Dilate), which sympathizes sarcastically with an unnamed friend who did sign with a label. After recording with Ani in 1999, Prince described the effects of her independence. “We jammed for four hours and she danced the whole time. We had to quit because she wore us out. After being with her, it dawned on me why she’s like that – she’s never had a ceiling over her.”

Her lyrics are rhythmic and poetic, often autobiographical, and strongly political. “Trickle Down” discusses racism and gentrification, while “To The Teeth” speaks about the need for gun control, and “In or Out” questions society’s traditional sexuality labels. Most recently, the 2016 single “Play God” has become a battle cry for reproductive rights. Rolling Stone said of her in 2012, “The world needs more radicals like Ani DiFranco: wry, sexy, as committed to beauty and joy as revolution.”

Over the years she’s performed at countless benefit concerts, donated songs to many charity albums, and given time and energy to many progressive causes. She has learned from and demonstrated beside Gloria Steinem, Jesse Jackson and Dennis Kucinich. In 2004, she marched in the front row of the March for Women’s Lives along with Margaret Cho, Janeane Garofalo, Whoopi Goldberg, and many others, later performing on the main stage. She has beaten the drum for voter registration and turnout with “Vote Dammit” tours in multiple presidential election years, including most recently in 2016. She’s currently on the board of Roots of Music, an organization that provides at-risk youth with support and musical education in New Orleans, and the creative council of EMILY’s List, which helps elect pro-choice Democratic women to office.

As an iconic songwriter and social activist, she has been the inspiration for woman artists and entrepreneurs for over two decades. She has been featured on the covers of SPIN, Ms., Relix, High Times, and many others for her music and activism. She is the idol of empowered women who came of age in the 90s and continues to bring younger fans into her fold. From Alice Walker to Amy Schumer, Ani is respected by wordsmiths across milieux and generations. She blazed the trail for self-directed artist careers and has been cited by musicians from Prince to Bon Iver as an inspiration to release their own art outside of the major label system.

Ani has been the recipient of many honors and awards, including a Grammy for best album package (Evolve), the Woman of Courage Award from the National Organization for Women, the Gay/Lesbian American Music Award for Female Artist of the Year, and the Woody Guthrie Award. At the 2013 Winnipeg Folk Festival she received their prestigious Artistic Achievement Award, and an honorary doctorate from the University of Winnipeg. In 2017, she received a Lifetime Achievement Award from A2IM (a nonprofit trade organization that represents independent record labels) and the Outstanding Achievement for Global Activism Award from A Global Friendship.
