| Silicon Valley is a global symbol of at least one high tech future. It is a mythic territory where bright young lads in a garage can blend innovation and entrepreneurial savvy to change the world. Beneath the hype and images, however, exists a region occupied by real people who struggle to survive the consequences of the Silicon Valley myth. Identity and work becomes the dominant venue for this creativity, and home and work are integrated -- and separated -- in new ways. What will be the relationships between the public and private domains? How do we navigate in a world in which we cannot assume that other people share our basic values and assumptions. Speakers: Dr. Charles Darrah, Dr. Jan English-Lueck, Dr. James Freeman. |
