SUMMARY:Permanent Ink: Why We Still Love Print in the Digital Age
LOCATION:Red Cross Building\, 605 Barnes Street\, Vancouver\, 98661
DESCRIPTION:[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]We once depended on handwri
 ting for recording information. Then the printing press changed everything
 . We could record\, store\, and access information in thousands of copies.
  Five hundred years later\, the digital revolution is transforming things 
 again. Today\, we get information from millions of websites in millisecond
 s with search engines and AI. Technology has always shaped the way we’ve s
 tayed informed\, expressed ourselves\, and stayed connected as communities
 . What lessons do earlier technologies\, like print\, hold for us today in
  the age of AI and digital overload? And why\, despite the speed and conve
 nience of newer technologies\, is print more popular than ever? At the end
  of the talk\, audiences will get the chance to try printing on a portable
  press.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column
