 About 
 the Event: Join the MSU Department of Geography, 
 Environment, and Spatial Sciences for 
 a special Earth Day Eve screening of OBSERVER, 
 a new documentary by Emmy-nominated filmmaker 
 Ian Cheney (Picture a Scientist, The City 
 Dark).\n
 \n
 About the Film: OBSERVER is a "playful, 
 philosophical experiment" that 
 takes a group of keen-eyed observers-including 
 scientists, artists, and even a hunter-to 
 diverse locations around the globe. Often arriving 
 without knowing their destination, these 
 observers are asked a simple but profound 
 question: What do you see? From the icy landscapes 
 of Greenland to the microscopic wonders 
 of a Seoul laboratory, the film explores the 
 transformative power of observation. Using a 
 small red wooden square as a literal frame for 
 the world, Cheney invites us to slow down, 
 rediscover the art of seeing, and find awe in 
 the most quotidian of locales.\n
 \n
 Why Attend? 
 In an era of rapid environmental change, how 
 we perceive our world is more important than 
 ever. Come celebrate the beauty of our planet 
 and explore how different perspectives-from 
 a geologist to a poet-can reshape our understanding 
 of the environment, and learn how basic 
 geographic skills can help us understand 
 the physical world around us. \n
