Aspen is a place for leaders to lift their sights above the possessions which possess them. To confront their own nature as human beings, to regain control over their own humanity by becoming more self-aware, more self-correcting, and hence more self-fulfilling.

Socrates San Francisco – Is technology the new religion?

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.
