We choose to write our thoughts on Twitter, detail everything in daily blogs, or combine the two into one great online experience. It expands our horizons - until it starts interfering with our lives. Technology is frequently exploited by the elite to insulate themselves physically and mentally from their fellow man. The tendency to refuse to engage with individual people and instead objectify them as if they ‘were numbers on a computer screen with the cold, calculating, impersonal logic of the machines on which ‘developed’ societies appear to have become dependent is concerning. Locked in an escapist world of digital culture, our society is growing dangerously close to denying our essential connection to others and to the natural world.
