In sports and in life, CONNECTION is as important as everything else put together.
We live in times that make it easy for us to believe that we must achieve perfect alignment, with each element working together seamlessly. However, this perspective restricts everyone involved to merely the sum of their individual contributions.
We provide an immersive experience of **Gestalt**, where connections between parts create something greater than the sum of the parts.
We don’t access a Gestalt by following instructions. We achieve this level of connection by observing and copying those in the Gestalt we wish to join, and processing the entirety of the experience so that we embody the Gestalt. It is easier to access a Gestalt when someone is shaping it for us.
HOW TO SHAPE A GESTALT - think Steph Curry and Antoine Dupont
1. Clarity. Ensure that the next move is apparent to everyone
2. Patience. Wait to see how everyone reacts
3. A Sense of Calmness. If the chosen move can’t be executed, stay calm, and allow another move of clarity to unfold.

About the event
Play basketball to learn to thrive in a world with Artificial Intelligence by doing the opposite of what AI does.
By playing basketball we give ourselves opportunities to process things in the opposite way to AI. Instead of treating each other as Lego-like pieces in a game plan, we see each other as blocking our line of sight and we make decisions on how to move around each other to see something we were not expecting to see, and we often express our surprise by saying "Wow."
We improve in-game decision-making by transcending mechanical thinking. We learn to thrive in a world with AI, by doing the opposite of what AI does.
As we accumulate practical experience, our viewpoint evolves from merely observing how AI organizes components to understanding the relationships and connections that illustrate how everything flows. This shift allows us to make decisions that are more effective…
