On The Periphery

Hosted by Steven Cox of Cause+Affect, each event brings together diverse perspectives from people quietly reshaping their fields, from technology to architecture, from art to urban development.

These aren't typical presentations. They're intimate glimpses into the spaces where conventional wisdom meets radical thinking, where tradition collides with disruption. Our speakers are chosen not for their mainstream success but for their ability to see what others might miss.

Perfect for the curious, the creative, and anyone interested in exploring what happens at the intersections of ideas. Each event offers a chance to connect with like-minded individuals and discover something unexpected.

Speakers:

Natalie Telewiak, Architect and Principal, MGA
Architect and Principal of MGA, Natalie Telewiak is revolutionizing how we build our cities through mass timber construction, showing how our oldest building material might be the key to a sustainable future.

Michael Tippett, Generation Studios
Tech pioneer Michael Tippett shares his work with Generation Films and explores how AI is transforming storytelling and filmmaking, revealing both the opportunities and challenges as we enter a new era of creative possibility.

Robin Kort, Swallow Tail Culinary Adventures
Master forager Robin Kort reveals how the edges of our urban environment hold unexpected treasures, showing us how ancient food gathering practices can reconnect us with our environment and each other.

At the edges, where these three perspectives meet, provocative ideas emerge. In our rush towards tomorrow, sometimes it's about finding fresh relevance in ancient wisdom. Our speakers each navigate this delicate balance between the new and the timeless, raising provocative questions about what "progress" really means.
