Sherrie Turkle - Connected But Alone
This is a TED talk by Sherrie Turkle which I have used to help develop my idea, it also gives proof to my idea considering what she discusses is what I am looking to explore through my images - How technology distracts us.
A few Quotes that give explanation for using technology and being distracted:
"Because you can text while doing something else, texting does not seem to take time but to give you time. This is more than welcome; it is magical.”
“Texting offers just the right amount of access, just the right amount of control. She is a modern Goldilocks: for her, texting puts people not too close, not too far, but at just the right distance. The world is now full of modern Goldilockses, people who take comfort in being in touch with a lot of people whom they also keep at bay.”
