ART, AI & HUMAN CONNECTION: PATRICK MCANDREW, PART 1

Patrick McAndrew, a brilliant writer, actor, and host who is redefining how we look at the digital world through the arts. Patrick uses theater, film, and media as a gateway to learning about the Internet, technology, and social media's influence on our decisions, habits, and lifestyles. He is the creator of the acclaimed one-man show Terms of Service (winner of "Best Fiction Show" at the United Solo Theatre Festival) and the mastermind behind the groundbreaking new musical, The Startup. Fresh off a completely sold-out workshop run at NYC's The Flea Theater, The Startup brilliantly tackles our tangled relationship with technology, exploring social media addiction, data privacy, and influencer culture. With a Master’s degree in Theatre, an extensive background in Off-Broadway and film production, and experience interviewing leading experts in tech policy, Patrick brings a profound and beautifully articulate perspective to our changing world. #BoldBeginnings #TheStartupMusical #HumanConnection #SocialMediaImpact #DigitalWellbeing #NYCTheatre #NewMusical #DisconnectToReconnect KEY TAKEAWAYS: -Creating a musical about technology and society -Challenges of producing and staging a new musical -The influence of social media and technology on human connection -Responsible AI and ethical tech development MORE ON PATRICK MCANDREW: WEBSITE: https://www.patrick-mcandrew.com/about FACEBOOK:   / patrick.mcandrew.94   INSTAGRAM:   / patrick.mcandrew   LISTEN ON SPOTIFY: https://open.spotify.com/episode/1RvL...
