Life Behind the Screen
Connected but Alone by Sherry Turkle
The impact of digital media and technology is
ground breaking, but it has become a crutch in communication. Sherry Turkle
talks about how conversation is diluted in our modern world and the impact it
has on our future. Sherry argues that we have devalued ourselves and our time
spent with others. “I share therefore I am”, we edit ourselves into a persona that
we believe can get us the most positive reinforcement. People are so nestled
into the life behind a screen, that they are isolated from opportunities and experiences
from life outside the screen.
