Although technology has been a significant part of our lives, it is also our own down fall
that led to lack of social interaction. The fact that cellular phones became more
important than our own well-being and those social statuses made it more prominent
that all we care about is our own self image and not what people think about. This made
it clearer when Blanksy created this graffiti to give light to the problems and conflict that
people face in the technology era it is true that these devices made it easier to
coordinate efficiently but behind those benefits there will also be side effects like
addiction, depression, and disorders that can develop. People are tunnel vision on the
concept of mobile phones that our lives has changed into this virtual network where
statuses is what only matters that being said once society is affected by an entity it
becomes a norm to our daily lives.
