Mark Ostach • TEDxOaklandUniversity

Ever wonder what our digital life will look like in the year 2034? According to digital wellness advocate Mark Ostach, it includes a generation of young adults called ‘dippies’ (short for digital hippies ) that don’t use smartphones. Furthermore, the government regulates how many emails you can send in a day and while the latest iPhone uses biometrics to lock you out if you're too stressed. Sound far fetched? Not as far as you'd think. fuMark Ostach will share what the future holds for our digital life.
