Throughout this special gathering, we will enjoy intimate group discussions with experts in machine learning, neurofeedback, consciousness, connectedness, and more – along with cutting-edge neurotechnology demos, tasty treats, an invigorating rope swing, a babbling brook, towering redwoods, floating gongs, and a constellation of fireplaces and lanterns glowing around the grounds.
