you are the technology
When you say technology,
what do you mean?
When you say technology,
are you talking about the other —
or yourself?
​​
Is it using it?
Abusing it?
Instant help,
or an instant hit?

A young teenager was caught
viewing explicit content online.
She was told to erase
her browsing history.
​
Does your history stare back at you —
shaming, teasing,
luring you in?
​
Connecting humans.
Notification alert:
new this, new that,
and the other.
​
A twelve-year-old boy
was reported to have taken his life
after losing a video game.
We say it is tragic news.
Commuting on public transport. Now, searching for a holiday deal. Online. In line. On the line.
In need of a refreshing drink.
Survey finds: the most common disability among people under 60 is depression, followed by hearing and visual problems. Taking notes to remember.
Somewhere.
Progressive research is used to cures illnesses.
I find a good moisturiser for a weathering day.

​
Writing replaced memory.
Still walking, but differently. Observing less. Still smiling meeting an old friend. Warm feeling.
There is no way to record the touch or their smell as of yet.
​
It might be a good idea.
To be fulfilled.
And complete.
Experience.
Without others.
Or never get bored of the same sight. Looking at the stars at night.
Or on the screen.
Where everything is good enough.
Setting the alarm clock. Stepping out of the bed.
...
When you look at yourself, what are you actually looking at?
Memories?
Or is it the way you distinguish colour red from the colour blue?
Or distinguish other things…?
New day.
Still responding to the temperature rising.
Or dropping down.
Moving again from the spot A to the spot B.
Stop.
No connection.
Retry.
