Media World
What does it mean to live in a digital culture? As I write this I am sitting in a coffee shop looking at the surrounding people all alone, drinking their coffee, typing away at their computers, just as I am doing. We are all disconnected from the world around us, lost in whatever this magical screen has to offer. If I stare at it long enough I almost feel like I would get sucked into the portal of digital space the computer’s open jaw has created… if only this damned glass wasn’t in the way. And this is our world now. It wasn’t always this way. I remember the days where computers were more of a novelty, but now they are everywhere. They are our companions and our best friends. I probably spend more time with my computer then any one person in my life.
