Wake up! Join us for tonight for CAFÉ GAGA!

GARETH BRANWYN: CAFÉ GAGA
Chronos Vs. Kairos
THU JUN 4 / 5:30-6:30 Happy Hour, 6:30-8:30 Cafe Gaga / FREE
DOME THEATRE

The Greeks had two conceptions of time: Chronos (clock time) and Kairos (the best, or the “right” time). This final salon will discuss these concepts of time and how we live in a world in which we seem to now be everywhere at once (and increasingly, nowhere at all). The forum will also discusses how we can leverage our digital lives to support a more grounded sense of community and place.
