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.
