Theme: Control Alt Delete

This event occurred on
October 29, 2016
Windhoek, Khomas
Namibia

In 2016, we would like to have multiple speakers, who are experts in their respective fields, to come share their take on Ctrl-Alt-Delete in order to share new ideas and perspectives on evaluating current operating systems, terminating the necessary programs and restarting one’s life. As we go through life year by year, we build up an archive of programs running in the background. These are not necessarily beneficial to your operating system and may slow down your way of thinking, doing and ultimately the way in which you see and relate to life.
It is time for a period of innovation within ourselves and how we relate to our environment, community and fellow human beings not only in Namibia but the whole world.
