AI is reshaping our work, our decisions, the way we imagine what comes next. Underneath that, something quieter is fraying. Our sense of connection, our trust, our capacity to make meaning together.



This series begins in that tension.




Ten chapters. Ten roundtables. Voices across disciplines, gathered not to perform certainty, but to meet what this moment is asking of us. What's breaking, what's at stake, and what it means to remain human in the midst of it all.




Convened by Eleanor Gammell, each conversation moves into the forces reshaping our minds, our relationships and our systems, and the quieter ways we might still find each other.




Eleanor's work focuses on systems dynamics and human futures - spanning Small Giants Academy, TEDxSydney, MONA and The School of Life - where she has co-created immersive experiences to engage with the interconnected crises and emergent possibilities of this moment.
