Empathy

Mark Ruffalo and Murray talk about the word "Empathy".

Speaking at the December 4, 2006 gala for K.I.D.S./Fashion Delivers, Barack Obama describes how Americans must overcome the country's deficit in empathy to address the needs of populations at risk in our society.

Catherine Sullivan's anxiety-inducing films and live performances reveal the degree to which everyday gestures and emotional states are scripted and performed, probing the border between innate and learned behavior. Sullivan's appropriation of classic Hollywood filming styles, period costumes, and contemporary spaces such as corporate offices draws the viewer's attention away from traditional narratives and towards an examination of performance itself.
