Posit: Digital technology is shaping who we are. It is the medium through which we work, learn, and connect. It could augment the best in us or diminish our humanities. Conversations at the intersection of Design and Technology.
We talked with Lindsay Varty, the author of Sunset Survivors, a gorgeous book about the disappearing Hong Kong crafts and businesses.
We talked about third culture experience, intrinsic knowledge, the value of connection. How what today might be sunsetting as seemingly impractical might have more than nostalgic value. It is ironic how much knowledge is disappearing every day while we celebrate the abundance of information.
