Overview
Brought to you by the Black Dog Institute, the National Institute for Experimental Arts at UNSW and host Julie McCrossin, The BIG Anxiety Project explores one of society's greatest (and common) mental health issues: anxiety.
According to Beyond Blue, approximately 45 percent of Australians will experience a mental health condition in their lifetime. In any one year, around 1 million Australian adults have depression, and over 2 million have anxiety.
How are we coping with the strains and stresses of city life? What does online connectivity mean for our levels of anxiety? Who does it effect, how does it feel and what can we do to address it? An interactive session blending health research with cutting-edge data visualisation tools, this Vivid Ideas event will let you see social media feeds transformed into live infographics that reveal the themes, thoughts and truth behind anxiety.
This is one of our top picks for Vivid Ideas events. Read the whole list and reboot your brain.
