Спикер:
Андрей Курпатов, психотерапевт, писатель, телеведущий
Организатор: Кластер «Игры разума»; КНИГАБАЙТ
Книги драматично отстают от ускоряющегося времени социальной жизни. Само мышление человека трансформировалось: нам все сложнее освоить «большую форму» – обычную книгу, мы переключаемся на смс-уведомления, картинки из Instagram и ролики на Youtube. Гораздо проще скроллить ленту во ВКонтакте или на Facebook, а потому мы заменяем мышление потреблением информации, с которым тоже возникают проблемы – мы уже не способны эту информацию усваивать. Как существовать в этом «дивном новом мире»? Именно об этом пойдет речь на выступлении. Известный психотерапевт, писатель, президент Высшей школы методологии, основатель интеллектуального кластера «Игры разума» Андрей Курпатов занимается исследованием мышления более двадцати лет. В 2016 году изданы его новые книги «Складка времени», «Методология мышления. Черновик», «Что такое мышление? Наброски» и «Интеллектуальный ресурс».
Weve all heard of physical and mental health, but another important aspect to our overall health and wellbeing is social health. In fact, recently in the United States, the surgeon general revealed that social isolation and loneliness just topped obesity to claim second place as one of the top three killers in America.
Humans are highly social creatures, but that doesnt always mean that our social interactions are healthy. In this informative talk, Dr. Chelsea Shields, explains how our emotions can easily be high-jacked and then offers guidance on how to evaluate and level up our social health.
This presentation was filmed during the COVID-19 pandemic, with only a limited live audience of cast and crew members. While applause has been added to the beginning and end of the video, all other aspects have intentionally remained as filmed to honor the struggle and loss experienced globally during 2020.
Wardrobe furnished by Tommaso Cardullo. Dr. Chelsea Shields is a bio-social anthropologist, placebo studies expert, and runs a local consulting business.
In her academic work, Dr. Shields focuses on the evolution and elicitation of the placebo effect outside medical contexts. She coined the concept of social susceptibility to talk about how and why our human bodies have evolved to react, adjust, and adapt to specific social rituals, relationships and communities. Her work also investigates the evolutionary mismatch of modern human hyper-sociality and the health implications of a global, digital, 24/7 social network.
In her professional work, Shields runs a research and strategy business that specializes in qualitative, quantitative, and ethnographic research as well as creative ideation, branding, and user-experience design.
Dr. Shields is also a TED Fellow, 3x TED speaker, and teaches speaker training that is focused on the 90% of communication we never talk about: the non-verbals!

Bilingualism makes you more cultural aware and able to communicate easier with other cultures, foreigners. Gaston has a fantastic way in explaining this to you.
As a journalist and writer Gaston has a lot of linguistic experience. But in terms of experience, he says, there’s nothing like staying abroad. In Peru and Ecuador, speaking Spanish was the best and often the only way to communicate with people who lived completely different lives. “By learning another language, you make your world bigger, more diverse and less scary.” More about the delights and surprising effects of bilingualism in his talk.
The evolution of languages is an ongoing process, and huge changes can be expected in decades to come. “Young people want to distinguish themselves from the generation before them, and changing the language is a great way to do that, especially as it annoys older people no end.” Among adults, women tend to be leading in language change. So when it comes to language, adult men are mostly followers? “Yes, we are. And often grumpy ones at that.”
