What is hype, how does it circulate, and what does it mean to create in its wake?

Speakers

Niek Dekker, all-round creative from the ultra-hyped NYC art collective MSCHF, will share field notes from inside the hype cycle.

Bakken & Bæck researchers Amelie Dinh + Iris Cuppen will look at hype as a promise, and the stories, metaphors, and characters that make up a compelling tech hype.

Gemma Milne, hype researcher and author of Smoke and Mirrors: How Hype Obscures the Future and How to see Past It, will talk about how tech hype moves money and attention, and how practitioners and companies can live — and work — with it.
