Location: Exact address given in confirmation email? Lecture: "The Science of Perception: White & Gold Dress Explained"? Speaker: Dr. Pascal Wallisch, PhD Join us for a fascinating evening with Dr. Pascal Wallisch as we dive into the viral sensation of #thedress that captivated the internet over a decade ago. Was it black and blue or white and gold? This intriguing question continues to spark debate and reveals much about how we perceive and process information.In this engaging lecture, Prof. Wallisch will explain why people saw the dress differently and what this phenomenon teaches us about human perception and cognition. He will extend his analysis to other ambiguous stimuli, such as "the sneaker," "Laurel and Yanny," and even "Crocks and Socks." Together, we will explore how these seemingly trivial disagreements reflect deeper issues of political polarization and division in society.Prof. Wallisch is recognized as NYU's most decorated educator, having received numerous accolades, including a distinguished teaching award, two Golden Dozen awards, and five teaching innovation awards.Don’t miss this opportunity to understand the complex nature of perception and its implications for our world!Get a drink, connect, and learn at Lectures on Tap! ?Agenda6:30 PM – Doors open: find a seat (open seating!), order food & drinks, and expect a bar line—arriving early is key.6:55 PM – Host introduction7:00 PM – Lecture begins7:45 PM – Audience Q&A8:00 PM – Have 1:1 time with the speaker, mingle with fellow guests, and order another round8:30 PM – Wrap up. - **Event URL**: https://allevents.in/new-york/lectures-on-tap-the-science-of-perception-white-and-gold-dress-explained/100001980389599603 - **Event Categories**: - **Interested Audience**: - total_interested_count: 0 ## Ticket Details - **Ticket URL**: https://consumer.pxf.io/c/1339408/3151484/39691?partnerpropertyid=1191892&MediaPartnerPropertyId=1191892&svlink=14105511&level=1&u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.eventbrite.com%2Fe%2Flectures-on-tap-the-science-of-perception-white-gold-dress-explained-tickets-1980389599603 - **Ticket Price Range**: min: 41.32, max: 41.32, currency: USD ## Event venue details - **city**: New York - **state**: NY - **country**: United States - **location**: Midtown Manhattan - **lat**: 40.7549309 - **long**: -73.9840195 - **full address**: Midtown Manhattan, Midtown, New York, United States ## Event Organizer details - **affiliate_id**: 10 - **organizer**: Felecia For The Win (https://allevents.in/org/felecia-for-the-win/24277484) ## Event gallery - **Alt text**: banner - **Image URL**: https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events1/banners/c47e408d2a5e52a7347a347e4c018c5c12412079b39692b0f817aed2df9b784c-rimg-w1200-h600-dce0e1da-gmir.jpg?v=1769798894 - **Alt text**: thumbnail - **Image URL**: https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events1/banners/829c325d241faba7fd873b3c743848431a831b41fa970e5c6a009a7b45728a0d-rimg-w400-h400-dcdfe0d9-gmir.jpg?v=1769798894 ## FAQs - **Q**: When is the event happening? - **A:** Wed, 18 Feb, 2026 at 06:30 pm - **Q**: Where is the event happening? - **A:** Midtown Manhattan, Midtown, New York, United States - **Q**: What is the ticket price? - **A:** starting from 41.32 up to 41.32 USD - **Q**: Who is organizing the event? - **A:** Felecia For The Win - **Q**: What type of event is this? - **Q**: Where can I find ticket details about Lectures on Tap - "The Science of Perception: White & Gold Dress Explained" ? - **A:** You can find ticket details about this event on AllEvents. ## Structured Data (JSON-LD) ```json [ { "@context": "https://schema.org", "@type": "Event", "name": "Lectures on Tap - "The Science of Perception: White & Gold Dress Explained"", "image": "https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events1/banners/c47e408d2a5e52a7347a347e4c018c5c12412079b39692b0f817aed2df9b784c-rimg-w1200-h600-dce0e1da-gmir.jpg?v=1769798894", "startDate": "2026-02-18", "endDate": "2026-02-18", "url": "https://allevents.in/new-york/lectures-on-tap-the-science-of-perception-white-and-gold-dress-explained/100001980389599603", "location": { "@type": "Place", "name": "Midtown Manhattan", "address": { "@type": "PostalAddress", "streetAddress": "Midtown", "postalCode": "10019", "addressLocality": "New York", "addressRegion": "NY", "addressCountry": "US" }, "geo": { "@type": "GeoCoordinates", "latitude": "40.7549309", "longitude": "-73.9840195" } }, "eventAttendanceMode": "https://schema.org/OfflineEventAttendanceMode", "description": "Professors, experts, and storytellers giving thought-provoking lectures in NYC bars.", "offers": [ { "@type": "AggregateOffer", "availability": "https://schema.org/InStock", "priceCurrency": "USD", "availabilityStarts": "2026-04-05", "availabilityEnds": "2026-02-18", "validFrom": "2026-04-05", "lowPrice": "41.32", "highPrice": "41.32", "price": "41.32", "url": "https://allevents.in/new-york/lectures-on-tap-the-science-of-perception-white-and-gold-dress-explained/100001980389599603" }, { "@type": "Offer", "availability": "https://schema.org/SoldOut", "priceCurrency": "USD", "availabilityStarts": "2026-04-05", "availabilityEnds": "", "validFrom": "2026-04-05", "url": "https://allevents.in/new-york/lectures-on-tap-the-science-of-perception-white-and-gold-dress-explained/100001980389599603", "price": "41.32", "name": "Admission Ticket" } ], "organizer": [ { "@type": "Organization", "name": "Felecia For The Win", "url": "https://allevents.in/org/felecia-for-the-win/24277484", "description": "Felecia is a software engineer, content creator, and host with over 700k followers across her social media platforms.
