520 $aConfirmation is a show about the gulf between beliefs that we can't talk across. About our knee-jerk dismissal of the opposing viewpoint. About the echo chamber of agreement and validation we live in. About the way we choose only to see the evidence that proves we're right. Working with research into the phenomenon of Confirmation Bias, and a conversation with political extremism, Confirmation is an attempt to have an honorable dialog, real and imagined, across the gulf. Not to debate the viewpoints, but to find out how we come to believe what we believe, and how, from a common starting point,we can end up so far apart.
