Levi Felix is the Founder of Digital Detox and Camp Grounded, Summer Camp for Adults. He coined the phrases Digital Detox & Disconnect to Reconnect while living off-the-grid on a remote island in Cambodia. There he questioned the developing societal norms surrounding digital technology, the ethics of the tech industry, and began wondering if the gadgets of the 21st century are creating the first socially acceptable global addiction that is rewiring the human connection.
Over the past 5 years, he's hosted thousands of participants on four day off-the-grid experiences. He's been featured on the Today Show, Good Morning America, CNN, BBC, NPR, New York Times and has curated content for Fast Company and INC Magazine. When not in the woods, he works with clients such as Airbnb, VMWare, TOMS Shoes, DropBox, Yelp and Pandora - leading workshops in tech mindfulness, play and (dis)connection.
He's become enthralled with the inherent power of going off-the-grid, unplugging, being outside in nature and writing on a typewriter. He's a full-time Camp Director, part-time musician, an aspiring spear fisherman, and is currently writing his book, The Humanifesto.
Biet Simkin is the Founder of Center of the Cyclone, an immersive experience that weaves meditation, self inquiry, art, music and fashion, offering an explosive experience. Biet’s feeling was that the world of the intellect, fashion and art needed spirituality, and the world of spirituality was often missing the mark and needed some vanity and fire. Colliding these two worlds Biet has created events with Lululemon, Soul Cycle, Summit Series, Vice, Sundance Film Festival, The Path, The Collective, Babel, Wanderlust Festival and more.. Currently she is working on her upcoming event at The Whitney and is the resident meditation leader at Neuehouse. Meditation with Biet is different in that it is more emotional, her work takes you through the emotional, intellectual, instinctive and moving centers to get to a place of equanimity and joy. Through private one on ones, corporate groups, parties, speaking engagements and pop ups in museums and art galleries, Biet is bringing this big work into the world and helping raise consciousness from the outside in. Her work is also unique as it is bringing the sound of her music into the meditation experiences and giving music a new venue. Her newest album ‘The Lunar’ debuts September 2015.
