Pico Iyer on the Nature of Connection



2012, Science & Technology
Presented By: Pico Iyer

Pico Iyer points out that our technology has given us astonishing amounts of content but no structure, and that we need stillness and isolation in order to sort out and make sense of all that our information age throws at us. He suggests that it is now more than ever necessary for us to spend some time in stillness, meditation and quiet reflection.
