In a week we’ll be hosting the final Wayfinding conversation of the season!
It’s been such a privilege to host these conversations about the tensions of tech in modern life, and we’re closing off with @vviet93 and @grohmannrafael in conversation about work as a site of moral courage and collective action.
🗓️ Wednesday, Mar 25th at 6pm
💰$15 ($5 for 1RG Members)
📌 RSVP on luma (link in bio)
Just a little over a week to Wayfinding: Art, a conversation between Benjamin Lappalainen and Michelle Jia, moderated by Brian Sholis.
We're told that with AI available now, anyone can become an artist, no skill or training required. Or perhaps no one will be paid for their art again. We'd like to find our way between the hype and the fear.
What does it feel like to create art, and to engage in the art world at this moment?

For Wayfinding: Teenhood, Rachel Long will be talking with a panel of teenagers from around Toronto about their relationship with technology and how they see things play out among their peers. What are they afraid of? What are they excited about? How would they do things differently, if they could control the technologies available to them? And what do they wish technologists knew about their experience?

We’re super excited to announce Wayfinding, a new event series of conversations about navigating the tensions of tech in modern life.
We live in a moment where our trust in tech companies to protect our privacy and our freedom is at its lowest. Large swathes of the tech industry are shifting into an openly authoritarian politic.
At the same time, we live in a moment where our individual capacity to collaborate with technology has been amplified more than ever before.
How do we engage with this potential while living in accordance with the responsibility we have to the world and each other?
Wayfinding is a series of conversations about finding our way through this landscape together, both individually and collectively. This series will place signs and markers to help you orient yourself in the digital world with intentionality. Wayfinding is not about having the answers but about asking the right questions together.
The first event is Privacy on January 28th. Find out more in bio
