Ep41: Joey Camire explains the impact of tech on culture, business, and relationship

Funny as Tech co-hosts David Ryan Polgar (tech ethicist) and Joe Leonardo (comedian) talk with Joey Camire, a Principal and Strategist at the brand and innovation consultancy Sylvain Labs. We chat about the impact of emojis on communication, the influence of sci-fi on tech creation, and the human pushback of every waking moment becoming an advertisement. We also dip into unintended consequences, business models, and a strange group of One Direction conspiracy theorists.

As part of the founding team of Sylvain Labs, Joey played a major role in both the development of the quality standard of or our work as well as the texture and nuance of our culture. On a day to day basis his responsibilities range from strategic direction of major lines of business to new business development. Joey has also taken a leading role in the development of outward facing thought leadership ranging from writing and editing white papers and blog posts to the development of a documentary called Instafame (over 200K+ views). Innovation and brand strategy projects have been completed for such major clients as General Motors, AB Inbev, Google, Chevrolet and Manchester United, Viacom, IAC, Target, Chobani and more.
