We all know that today’s tech giants have transformed the world of knowledge and information, but Franklin Foer argues that this transformation has gone so far that it endangers our ability to think. We love our tech toys, tools and networks but what are we sacrificing for their daily convenience?

Are we, as Foer suggests, on our way to a world without mind? Presented by Carriageworks and UNSW Centre for Ideas.
