After watching the TEDTalks video, I have to say I agree with the point that Sherry Turkle is trying to make. Of course the quick advancement of technology can greatly help the human race in multiple ways such as health, transportation etc. It can also launch home careers, and help people interact with each other. But It seems that now a days people are more tuned into their devices than they are with actual other people. I think she makes a great point about how it is important for children to have conversations when their young for development. And If Kids are glued to their phones during their early years, by the time they are older they will not know how to have a conversation with another human being.
Very nice photo essay! I learned a lot and the pictures were great! Well done.
ReplyDeleteYou can consider me a little bit bike inept on account of how much I hate riding them so reviewing your photo essay was a great way for me to gain some insight into this strange world and it really allowed me to visually participate in a sport in a way that I would never in real life. (Mine that is.) I loved the shots with the dust flying up, it really helped to depict the speed the rider was going at. I also think you guys are really brave riding on the edge of those berms like that, especially in that one picture where it looks like you could go over the edge if you went any higher. Nice height on that jump too. What's your personal best?
