Vincent Horn is part of a new generation of teachers who are translating the wisdom traditions of the past into 21st century code. In his 20s Vincent spent over a year doing silent meditation practice in Buddhist retreat centers across the country. During this time he also started Buddhist Geeks, a media project which explores the convergence of Buddhism, technology, and global culture. After years of prototyping and learning he developed a way of training the mind that is neither framed in terms of ancient religions nor which denies their powerful influence. At mindtraining.io he teaches meditation for the digital age, and as the resident mindfulness coach at reboot.io he works with CEOs and tech-startups who want to transform the world by reprogramming their inner operating systems.
