Description

Does Burning Man really trigger transformative experiences, and if so, what does that look like? Stuart and behavioral scientist Kristen Berman go deep on the psychology of change, and what that looks like in Black Rock City and beyond. Can participating in a Burning Man event really make you more generous, more tolerant, more civic-minded? What’s the role of the 10 Principles in all of this, and how important is the physical environment of Black Rock City?  Kristen Berman is a behavioral scientist who’s explored human behavior at Duke University, at Google, with her consulting firm Irrational Labs, and at Burning Man’s Black Rock City event. She’s the author of Keeping Up With the Joneses at Burning Man and the co-author of Hacking Human Nature for Good. And of course, she’s got a great TEDx talk.https://kristenberman.com/LIVE.BURNINGMAN.ORG
