SUMMARY:Douglas Rushkoff: 'Leaving Us Behind: The Silicon Valley Mindset'
DESCRIPTION:In-person and online! \nJoin us Sunday as Leader Dr. Joe Chuman sits down with author\, professor\, and documentarian Douglas Rushkoff to discuss his latest book\, Survival of the Richest: Escape Fantasies of the Tech Billionaires: \nFive billionaires summoned Douglas Rushkoff to a desert resort for a private talk. The topic? How to survive The Event: the societal catastrophe they know is coming. Rushkoff came to understand that these men were under the influence of The Mindset: a Silicon Valley-style certainty that they can break the laws of physics\, economics\, and morality to escape a disaster of their own making—with enough money and the right technology. \nRushkoff will share how we can transcend the landscape the Mindset created—a world alive with algorithms and intelligences actively rewarding our most selfish tendencies—and rediscover community\, mutual aid\, and human interdependency. Instead of changing the people\, we can change the program. \nRushkoff will also be signing his new book\, Survival of the Richest: Escape Fantasies of the Tech Billionaires\, immediately following the program. \nDouglas Rushkoff is rofessor of Media Theory and Digital Economics at Queens/CUNY\, and an author and documentarian who studies human autonomy in a digital age. Named one of the world’s ten most influential intellectuals by MIT\, his twenty books include the upcoming Survival of the Richest: Escape Fantasies of the Tech Billionaires\, as well as the recent Team Human\, based on his podcast\, and the bestsellers Present Shock\, Throwing Rocks and the Google Bus\, Program or Be Programmed\, Life Inc\, and Media Virus. He also made the PBS Frontline documentaries Generation Like\, The Persuaders\, and Merchants of Cool. His book Coercion won the Marshall McLuhan Award\, and the Media Ecology Association honored him with the first Neil Postman Award for Career Achievement in Public Intellectual Activity. He writes a weekly column on Medium\, and lives with his family in Hastings-on-Hudson\, New York. \nNotice: Only fully-vaccinated individuals are invited to attend in-person at this time. Proof of vaccination\, photo ID\, and mask are required. \nWatch Online: Click to join at start | ID 863 0430 0961 | Passcode 609424\nTo join by phone (audio only)\, dial (929) 205-6099 and enter the Zoom ID above. \nPresider: Leader Dr. Joe Chuman \nMonthly Collection: My Own Book Fund \n\nSunday Platform is our most important and long-standing community event.
