Unfinished is delighted to team up with Clubhouse, the social audio platform, to bring vital conversations about the future of the web to attendees of Unfinished Live — and anyone at home with the free Clubhouse app — in a new, in-person format. Joining the festival in New York on September 23 and 24 are popular Clubhouse hosts Imani Ellis, Katie Longmyer, Ben Dietz, Jenny Stefanotti, Jason Steinhauer, and more. 

Nearly a dozen conversations will be hosted over two days in our dedicated Clubhouse lounge at The Shed. Anyone who wants to participate in person can step into a booth — and onto the virtual stage — to make their voice heard. And anyone who wants to join in from home can do so from the Clubhouse app. The Clubs are all in line with the event’s overall theme of imagining and building a decentralized future.
