The notion of the "Now" is a central interest of many philosophical theories. The questions of what it means to be "in the present moment" and whether the present moment is actually a well-defined concept have been debated for centuries. Recently, Neuroscientists have found that, contrary to popular belief, the brain does not process information in a linear fashion. Instead, information is constantly being shuffled around and reordered in order to create a coherent and current picture of the world- The NOW.

In 1904, the painter and writer, Emile Bernard visited the Modern Master, Paul Cezanne, in Aix, located in the South of France. In their ensuing correspondences, Cezanne expounded the priorities of his impressionistic painterly practice. Bernard’s interpretations of Cezanne’s work and ideas were even more influential in the turn-of the-century art circles for appearing to carry the authority of a confidant and trusted colleague.
