|
Friday, July 06, 2012 UTC
There's always something brewing in the PopTech community. From the world-changing people, projects and ideas in our network, a handful of this week's highlights follows.
- To provide context for PopTech Iceland 2012, Executive Director Andrew Zolli explained why we chose Iceland for our first ever international conference.
- For a closer look at Iceland's rise and fall, Andri Snær Magnason (PopTech 2012 Iceland), author of Dreamland: A Self-Help Manual for a Frightened Nation and director of a documentary by the same name, wrote an article that looks at the dynamics of Iceland including the recent crises it encountered and the outlook for the future.
- Our resident graphic facilitator and artists Peter Durand shared a visual digest of PopTech 2012: Toward Resilience that included graphic representations of each of the speaker's talks.
