Founders Creative & David Reiley Present: Experiment... like your life depends on it! (11/13 in San Francisco)

​Professor David Reiley, research scientist by trade and curious experimenter by nature, examines (with your help!) how we form our beliefs and how these beliefs shape our lives.

​In this captivating performance, David examines the power and importance of experimentation and beliefs through a series of personal stories on topics including love, baseball, phone sex, and Magic: The Gathering.

​You'll think about your beliefs in a way you may never have before, and you may even start some experiments of your own.
