In our curriculum, we’ll dive deep into the messy early days of movements that now define our present. From our privileged position, their visions seem obvious; we forget these edifices started as projects pursued by people seen as unserious, radical, and even dangerous. Through studying the dawn of the Enlightenment, the arrival of the Counterculture, and the emergence of Cyberculture, we gain frames to interpret our present and shape our future
Is this Fellowship for you?
You want to pursue big, meaningful work.
You have been searching for the right environment and field in which to apply this ambition, but you still find yourself uncertain about whether you're on the right path.
You've proven to yourself that you can take on challenging ideas and problems, and you're eager to find ways to use this ability in service of real goals, instead of artificial ones.
You frequently find yourself excited about topics which most people don't seem to fully understand, and you find it occasionally difficult to explain your interests.
You have high expectations for yourself and the people around you. You want to confront your ideas and ideals to reality.
