The Center for Cognitive Liberty & Ethics is very honored to welcome Douglas Rushkoff as the newest member to its Board of Advisors.

He is the author of eight best-selling books on new media and popular culture, including Cyberia, Media Virus, Playing the Future, Coercion: Why We Listen to What "They" Say, and the novels Ecstasy Club, and Exit Strategy.

Rushkoff analyzes the way people, cultures, and institutions create, share, and influence each other's values. He sees "media" as the landscape where this interaction takes place, and "literacy" as the ability to participate consciously in it.

Rushkoff will be conducting a Comparative Religion Workshop with Erik Davis and Mark Pesce at the Esalen Institute on August 2-4, 2002.
