While many turn to artistic mediums to convey their own perceptions, Brandeis alumni Alissa Fagin ’20 utilizes documentary filmmaking to explore the subjective experiences of others. Fagin’s work is unique in that it blends science and art together through filmmaking, ultimately communicating “science in a way that’s nuanced and emotional” and capturing the subjectivity still prevalent in a concrete field.
