Inspiration Talk: "From Crisis to Collaboration Dan Podjed

Inspiration Talk: "From Crisis to Collaboration Dan Podjed

In today's world, where crisis is the norm, many of us are becoming "homo insulatus"—isolated individuals glued to screens. Despite seeming connected, we're actually growing more detached. Anthropologist Dan Podjed explores breaking free from "crisolation" by reconnecting with the world, emphasizing genuine human interaction. Inspired by Queen's "I Want to Break Free," the talk explores desires for peace, focus, and freedom in our hyper-connected yet fragmented world.
