The column on the left represents where we are now. The column on the right represents where we need to go. Are there plausible paths for how the world moves from the left column to the right?

We explored this question at last Sunday’s Weekly Bento. First with a fifteen minute presentation by me, and then an amazing group discussion that included insights from a First Nations leader, data scientists, arts professionals, and entrepreneurs on their experiences dealing with these issues. The conversation was so remarkable I’ve uploaded the whole thing. Highly recommended:

Thanks to everyone for sharing your insights. Much more on this in an upcoming essay.

The return of the Retro Bento

This week the Retro Bento returns. The Retro Bento is a casual hour on Fridays for people to get together and reflect on the week that was (and what a week this one in particular was). RSVP here:
