Keynote - Astrid Poot calling for punk-citizenship

There is a gap between the ideas for system change and the actual change of the

system. While we are aiming for a new digital world, we have to work with tools
and in worlds that are not in line with our ideals. How can we meet this interim
period we are in? Social designer and demonstrative philosophical writer Astrid
Poot calls for punk-citizenship. How can we make the story of ‘inevitable
evolving tech’ a story about humanity?

Inspired by Hannah Arendt, Poot will discuss making change while having limited

power, using anger and insecurity as a source. She'll challenge tech-experts
that are problem solving the world, and call for a punk attitude. And finally,
she’ll take us back to being human: what is good?
