Scorsese's #JeffLec2013 now available online

Martin Scorsese delivered the keynote speech at this year's Jefferson Lecture, billed as " the most prestigious honor the federal government bestows for distinguished intellectual achievement in the humanities." Scorsese was the first filmmaker in the event's 41 years ever to receive the award. 

His speech (and ensuing discussion with the audience) focused on teaching and learning visual literacy, especially in this increasingly-digital age. The National Endowment for the Humanities has archived the entire presentation  online if you missed it -- and most people did, since all of the (free) tickets were gone within two hours of being made available. (Tickets to Jefferson Lectures are available each year on a first-come, first-served basis.)

To view the excellent video, just click on the link from NEH, or go here.

Martin Scorsese: 'Treat every last moving image as reverently as the oldest book in Library of Congress' bit.ly/Z5xxVt #JeffLec2013

Messiah's Emma Huntington (Student Activities Board President) and Ben Taylor (Student Involvement & Leadership Programs Director) were in attendance, and I am 100% jealous. 

Somehow scored a (free) ticket to see Martin Scorsese speak in the THIRD ROW and I'm literally shaking uncontrollably. AHHH! #jefflec2013
