In the lecture, anthropologist Dr. Dan Podjed devoted himself to the concept of isolation and gave advice on how to disconnect with the help of technological devices and ensure a few moments of peace in a world that honors constant connection. On the one hand, people are afraid of isolation and do not imagine staying away from the community for a long time, but on the other hand, many have become overloaded with information in the era of digital transformation, smart devices and hyper-connectivity through online networks, so they retreat to secluded locations.
