Breaking News From CREATE Conference 2026

Hands-On Reset: The Analog Art Lab

The very brain systems that make inclusive, ethical, relational leadership possible are taxed by the way most AI and digital tools currently demand our attention…strengthened by analog, hands‑on making stuff.

What AI and tech do to your brain

• Fragment your focus and shorten attention span

• Overload working memory with nonstop inputs

• Keep your body still while your mind races

• Push you into constant multitasking and vigilance

• Make it harder to integrate and remember what you learn

At the Human-Centered AI Conference for Women: CREATE 2026, Futurist Cyndi Coon and The Crafty Chica, Kathy Cano-Murillo host the Analog Art Lab, where women will heal their nervous systems, make friends, and create space for more learning.

How analog art rebalances your nervous system

• Narrows attention to one simple, sensory task

• Lowers stress markers and supports nervous system regulation

• Activates imagination, emotion, and self-reflection networks

• Gives your brain space to consolidate information from sessions

• Restores the grounded presence you need for Ethical AI Development and AI Strategy for Women.​

And helps you make friends

• Shared making increases bonding chemistry and feelings of belonging

• Side‑by‑side creativity makes it easier to talk, listen, and build trust

• Co‑creating turns “networking” into genuine relationships among women at this Salt Lake City AI Event

And make space for more learning.

• Arts‑integrated experiences improve memory and long‑term retention

• Hands‑on making engages multiple brain systems, strengthening recall of complex content

• Playful, low‑stakes choice‑making frees up working memory so new ideas from The Human-Centered AI Conference actually stick
