EA Artists: Cultivating long-term thinking through art
Pursuing a career in art is not usually recommended within EA, though art can address the bias for the present, affect public imagination about, and make future more vivid than data.
From Alex Berezhnoi’s talk, you will learn how art can persuade an oil state to invest in renewables and how you can embrace deep time in the midst of a 20 million-people megapolis. Together, we will explore how the effective altruism community can become more welcoming and empowering for artists.
The talk will be followed by Q&A and a discussion.
EA Artists community stay connected via EA Anywhere Slack. Please join the #role-artists channel if you want to engage with others. You may also add yourself to the Community Base (sheet), so others can find you and your work (e.g. EA conference organisers looking for specific art).
I’m very excited to see this, looking forward to it. I have a strong desire to see more arts in EA.
