SUMMARY:Tech Talk: Are NFTs Still The Next Big Thing?
DESCRIPTION:  \nNonfungible tokens (otherwise known as NFTs) burst onto the tech scene in early 2021. In recent months\, however\, the high valuations of these assets have begun to diminish. Is this a temporary dip — or did we place too much hope on this shiny new object? Austin tech experts Tiana Laurence (author of “Blockchain for Dummies” and “NFTs for Dummies”) and Whurley (founder of Strangeworks and numerous other startups) engage with SXSW Chief Programming Officer Hugh Forrest in a lively discussion about what is real and what is hype. \n

SUMMARY:Discussion of "This is How They Tell Me the World Ends"
DESCRIPTION:The 2021 book “This Is How They Tell Me the World Ends: The Cyberweapons Arms Race\,” by Nicole Perlroth\, is a NY Times Bestseller. Although it is written in non-fiction journalism\, it reads like a modern-day spy thriller with illuminating\, sometimes terrifying\, insights and perspectives that are worthy of discussion\, especially in light of the Ukraine invasion. \nThe conversation surrounding this prize-winning book will explore cyberweapons as a new dimension of human conflict\, addressing the changing landscape and threats of modern warfare. It will be led by Hugh Forrest\, SXSW Chief Programming Officer\, Austin Forum advisory board member and avid book-reader. \nSign up for the online book talk now! \n**Also\, since SXSW will have just opened the PanelPicker for 2023 submissions\, Hugh will share some insights on how to craft the best submissions for SXSW 2023!
