Creativity & the Cloud with Dynamic Creative Couple, Tiffany Shlain & Ken Goldberg

How can we tap into the creative potential of new technologies without having them consume every moment? Award-winning filmmaker Tiffany Shlain and UC Berkeley robotics professor Ken Goldberg have been exploring the creative potential of the Internet since the first web browser appeared in 1994. Yet they also made a family decision four years ago to take one day a week and turn off all screens for what they call their “technology Shabbat.” The Mill Valley couple will explore, through their work with films, robots and art installations, the power of connecting, disconnecting, and the role of love, technology and the cloud in the creative process. For more information on this event, go to  commonwealthclub.org/mc2
