Is technology the new religion?
November 21st
6:00 – 8:00 pm PST
As our unified social values fragment and organized religion falls to the lowest levels of participation on record, people are seeking meaning. Belief in biohacking and the singularity now resemble tenets of a new faith. Since before the advent of the printing press and the Gutenberg Bible, technology and religion have had a complex and mutually beneficial relationship. While technology in the past augmented religion, join us as we ponder whether technology has itself become a new religion.
Join us for a conversation with Agnieszka Pilat, an artist who works at the intersection of robotics, Artificial Intelligence, and fine art, and Jacob Sherman, PhD, Professor of Philosophy and Religion and Chair of Philosophy, Cosmology and Consciousness Program at California Institute of Integral Studies.
