Thoughts On Being Perceived (on the Improv Stage & In Class)

The sense of being perceived is all about the activity you are doing when you are being looked at by other people. Having strong feelings about this kind of perception is common particularly with the autistic neurotype. And it can sure seem illogical or contradictory at times, too.And… people look at you in improv… a lot!Learn about what being perceived means to neurodivergent improvisers. What is it? How does being perceived work for humans in an improv class, and on an improv stage? What could make being perceived easier?I didn't think most of these podcast eps will be this long.
