WHERE IS THE INTERSECTION OF TECHNOLOGY, POWER, CULTURE?
( Ten minute read)
At its core, culture is the vibrant, shared understanding of how we live, behave, and believe. It encompasses traditions, values, languages, art, and societal norms, essentially acting as the invisible framework that shapes our collective identity.
In today’s fast-evolving world, the blend of culture and technology defines the success of digital transformation initiatives across industries. But without a cultural shift that promotes learning and adaptation, even the best technology can encounter pushback.
Let’s be clear, there is no going back, nothing exists in isolation.
This has given rise to new challenges and opportunities, reshaping how organizations operate, engage, and innovate.
The dispersal of information via digital technology can fundamentally change the ways in which cultures view and interact with other cultures.
Artists are using technology as a tool for creative expression, pushing the boundaries of traditional artistic mediums.
The intersection of art and technology holds both cultural and creative potential.
Collaboration between art and science drives innovation and advances in both fields.
While we’re waiting for the next moonshot to save the planet or the next billionaire to go bust, we won’t much notice that our chicken wings are being delivered by a robot.

The fact that people are tiring of relentless centralisation, and are looking for new ways to gather and organise is perhaps the most obvious point of intersection.
People working with machines; Polarisation and decentralisation; Inequality; and Regulatory entanglements there is plenty of overlap between those topics within the world of technology.
It seems motivated by a desire to find new ways of distributing power and assets in the face of climate injustice, deepening poverty, and financial exclusion.
So these social shifts seemed more significant to us than any of the technical attributes.
Three decades of the World Wide Web have made it much easier for large numbers of people to find affinity with people who share their beliefs.
Digital platforms have amplified the dissemination of cultural values, allowing societies to share practices and traditions across borders.
However we must be aware that we are a part of nature not apart from it. In nature power is not always loud.
All human comments appreciated. All like clicks and abuse chucked in the bin.
