Week 12 – Connection

Is anyone else super conscious of using their smartphones on public transport or is it just me? I find it terrifying how much of a strong-hold technology has on some people. Everyone has their heads bowed and their full attention focused on the Facebook app open directly in front of their eyes. It’s terrifying. Someone could be waving a knife in the aisles on the Craigieburn line but no one would be present enough in the moment to realise it!

I find it distressing. I pledge, from here on out, to not be on my smartphone for more than 1 minute at a time on public transport. Also, I will only reply to texts from my Mum.

We are discussing Media Dependency in more depth for Project Brief 4.
