He is a journalist, an artist, and a longtime member of the Burning Man community.He is a radical optimist.The future is a construct of the collective imagination.

Protopia.Delve into this conversation on cultural narratives, the transformative potential of AI, and the context shift into lifelong-learning."It’s not that our problems are smaller than we thought, it’s just that our capacities to solve them are greater than we thought."wikipedia.org/wiki/Kevin_Kelly_(editor)kk.org LIVE.BURNINGMAN.ORG
