In fact for many, the pandemic has acted as a wake-up call. Digital transformation was no longer a ‘nice to have’ but a matter of survival.

Key Insights:
* There is a perspective from which “today” means “post-Ordovician”
* Catul-Huyuk as 900 families living cheek-by-jowl, and after 1500 years… people leave…
* Angkor’s uniquely vulnerable water reservoirs… and eventually… people leave…
* Cahokia’s sophisticated organization of labor… but eventually… people leave…
* Pompeii… well, we know why people flee all-of-a-sudden…
* Cities are magical places, but not always, and not forever…
* Cities suffer from abandonment when an overdetermined disaster hits a sclerotic system: you can deal with politics, you can deal with climate change by themselves, but…
* Question: Will Detroit or Miami or Houston be the next “lost city” in the U.S.?
* Hexapodia!
