Mind and Technology

First We Make Brains, Then We Make Love

Group MindFrom a talk at the 2012 Dreamers, Renegades, Visionaries festival in Toronto. About how technology affects the mind, and how some developers are thinking about ways of integrating principles of mindfulness and mental health directly into the hardware and software of our smartphones, operating systems and other interfaces.

The content of this talk is good, but the delivery is a bit deranged. Looking at it later, I realized I was in a manic episode. The joys of mental health!
