I was so excited by this interview and am sort of surprised that it hasn't generated a bigger response. <br /><br />Meanwhile - I do exactly the same thing when I am housecleaning! Or straightening jewelry! Each pair of earrings (and I have many, many) has a specific memory of its acquisition or genesis, and a reason for my having kept it around for so long. The design, the size, the shape, the color or metal. I have now listened to the interview a second time and really want to splurge on the book. But I have a backlog on my night table....Phylhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00482775924810462890noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6650247255320056704.post-62881124134993831412015-08-25T09:53:21.527-04:002015-08-25T09:53:21.527-04:00Thanks for sharing this interview, Phyl.

The notions of seeing objects in different contexts and taking time to really view one or two objects instead of scanning many (in a museum) particularly resonated with me. It reminded me of a conversation I recently had with a friend. We were talking about how when we are housecleaning and dusting treasured objects we stop to think about where they came from, their various characteristics, the angles of their design, etc. and are constantly making new discoveries and connections to things in our collections - - evidence that we can apply Fineberg's premise anywhere in life around us! Such meaningful implications for education.Christie - Fine Lineshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10418114130566362780noreply@blogger.com
