We’re once again closing MOD festival with a wrap party, and you are all invited. Let’s get together to compare notes from the week, cheer with a Garage Project beer, and share ideas.
Come on down nice and early to explore Big Pic’s interactive installation. Grab a beverage, build your own furniture, meet new humans, and swap some more Hummingly cards. Once you are all warmed up and you have left the business of the week behind you, get ready to be challenged by some great speakers.

6.30PM The Social Dilemma Panel
We tweet, we like, and we share — but what are the consequences of our growing dependence on social media? Inspired by Jeff Orlowski’s documentary, The Social Dilemma, our panel will discuss the human impact of social networking. What does it mean to be an ethical marketer? How can we use social media, the right way? How is social media impacting our health?
