From Screens to Skeins with Margaret Fotinos

It’s rare that cultures as distinct as agribusiness and web development intertwine, but that’s exactly what happened in San Mateo, California. Margaret Fotinos, an innovative vintner in Silicon Valley, is the mind behind Forget-Me-Knit. Margaret offers insights into the creative process behind Forget-Me-Knit, exploring how this project serves as a tool for the cultivation of digital well-being amidst the psychological dangers of modern technology. This episode is a testament to the power of cross-disciplinary learning and the potential for diverse fields to contribute to our understanding of digital wellness.

CORRECTION: The 2023 Gallup poll Matthew references only polled adults. National levels of loneliness are likely higher than 17%.
