Thomas Hübl - Technology, Trauma and Mysticism

From our event on July 18th, 2020
Thomas Hübl: “Through the World Wide Web, we have created an external manifestation of our inner architecture. We created a global brain. And because of the global brain, we now have a perspective, a new consciousness of humanity and the world. And because of that, I believe that digital restoration is now possible. If we use technology to help us to integrate trauma, we have a very powerful partner. When we use technology and develop technology, at the same time we are trauma-informed, and we take this trauma factor into account, I believe we can literally restore the trauma in the world."
From increased polarization to ubiquitous means of distraction, technology is often seen to have a negative effect on trauma. But what would a technological landscape look like that was in service of actually healing individual and collective trauma? Is it possible to create global coherence, rather than fragmentation, through technology? And how might we best leverage tech in service of the evolution of human consciousness?

An app designed to support us in understanding how we are feeling, rather than telling us how we are feeling - an important distinction. The former supports our moving towards coherence, the latter locks us in our fragmentation.
