“Flags are the simplest designs, yet they can invoke the deepest emotions within us. They can make us swell with pride, or burn with hatred; we will die for a flag, or even kill for one…”

In his talks, Michael uses the lens of flags to jump into a wide range of deep topics such as personal identity, belonging, nationalism, design, and psychology.
