Galit Ariel | Talk Boutique Salon: Convergence or Conflict?
In this talk, Galit evokes the critical mind challenging her audience to consider the rights and privileges within the digital/physical space and the impact these will have as we continue to evolve as digital humans. Galit defines herself as a ‘digital hippie’ – since she is passionate about a future that will integrate technology into our everyday lives, but not control it. As a thought leader in augmented reality, she explores the wild and imaginative side of immersive technologies, but also their impact on our cultures, behaviours and ethical issues related to them. Her book ‘Augmenting Alice – The Future of Identity, Experience and Reality’ [July 2017] offers a context and futurescape to augmented reality applications, considering its impact on our public, personal and intimate space, that ultimately alters the way we experience reality and our sense of self.a notable keynote speaker and thought-leader in the field of immersive interaction.
