DISRUPTION AND CITIZENSHIP 2050: SPEAKERS AND OUTLINE
As profound automation shifts loom to transform human work and play into the middle of the century, how might we be making sense of the real context for change – the human emotional space? How will we reconcile choice and responsibility? How might resources coincide with technology to provoke new demands on our states of mind?
Will this new era, being called the Anthropocene, be a time of technological abundance, or of radical absence of choice? Disempowerment or democracy? Oppression or ownership? Five speakers share specialist insights and compare notes with host, Timo Peach.
Our speakers will be addressing some potential human behaviors around key aspects of technology, including:
Adoption and Data
Information technology trends and coming disruptions
Play and Experience
