Duo Dickinson speaks live to assembled students from Hartford,  Alfred NY, San Francisco & Sorrento:  

The Idea of Home: its universality, its deep idiosyncrasy, its protection, its public face, its intimacy, its dependence on culture and context; the largest clothing we wear, the most expensive thing we may own or pay for, the most valuable asset many of us have and the greatest liability. We are all experts on our own home: its program is of and by and for us:
