To celebrate Interational Day of Unplugging, a 24-hour global respite from technology, Mental Ideas hosted an event in Hong Kong Park on March 1st 2019 from sundown till midnight. Festival goers unplugged all electronic devices (cellphone sleeping bags were provided for all attendees) and enjoyed a boho evening of acoustic music, poetry, conversation, food & bonhomie! The event highlighted the value of disconnecting from our digital devices to connect with ourselves, our loved ones, and our communities in real time.

Thanks to Josh Walters and the Unplugged team in LA for inspiring us to take part and for keeping connected since then. We hope to join another global Unplugged event in the future!
