Are you paying attention? Our planet is changing at an exponential rate. If you don't know what dramatic changes are coming in the next few years, how will you be prepared? Or will your adaptations come too late? @mouselink is the internet handle of the New-York-based author, teacher, public speaker and artist, Matteo Wyllyamz. Matteo is a "Creative," interested in new media, visual communication, technorealism, and future studies. Matteo writes and speaks about the ways in which emerging technologies impact our society, communities, businesses, schools, and us as individuals. (This is sometimes referred to as "futurism.") Matteo specializes in bringing the details of emerging technologies to those who may not already be paying attention, and creates visual and spoken-word presentations on these same topics. Matteo likes to tell stories. Many of them are global. All are personal. Matteo Wyllyamz has recently lectured at Ithaca College, Cornell Cooperative Extension, TC3, NYCC, and the AFCU "Business Cents" program. He has also taught for CCU in Denver, Colorado Free University, Productivity Point, and the US Department of Defense. Most recently, he presented at the "social media rock show," Tweetstock, in Brantford, Ontario, Canada, and at the 140 Characters Conference in New York City. Matteo is a magna cum laude graduate of the professional writing program at Metropolitan State College of Denver. Matteo describes himself as a "Beatnik super-human, disguised as geek, loitering at the intersection of Art and Science." Contact him to arrange an appearance on radio, TV, and new media, or to organize a public presentation, such as a workshop, seminar, class, panel, speech, or spoken word performance.
