Are you interested in technological innovation like writing? What do you think about cities as the guiding light for humanity? How can we utilise technology while still planning with community in mind?

Interview with Howard Bloom, author and founder of the Howard Bloom Institute. We will talk about his vision for the future of cities, blinding humanity, human and urban evolution, space exploration, and many more.

Howard Bloom, dubbed the Einstein and Freud of the 21st century by Channel 4 TV, is an author of eight books, including The Lucifer Principle. His book Global Brain sparked a symposium by the Secretary of Defense’s office, with attendees from DARPA, MIT, and IBM. Bloom’s work spans The Washington Post, Wired, and Scientific American. Initially a microbiologist and physicist, he explored mass behaviour—from quarks to humans. He champions omnology, a science of the panoramic, weaving together all disciplines to see the universe’s grand patterns. In the 1970s-80s, he ran a top music PR firm, boosting stars like Michael Jackson and Prince, before returning to science in 1988. He’s since lectured across twelve scientific fields, co-founded the Asian Space Technology Summit, and inspired the Howard Bloom Institute in 2021.
