In the dim glow of screens, we find ourselves nostalgic for a connectivity long lost. The hum of data. The rhythm of our notifications; each ping like a heartbeat, pulsing echoes of bygone days when we were truly connected.
Modernity's embrace has left its marks on us—fractured images flickering in our minds like broken pixels, reminiscent of memories not fully formed. Scientists have noted a rise in tech-induced amnesia; it begs the question—what happens when all our memories are just bits and bytes?
Research shows that as we integrate technology into our lives, we lose track of the tangible. A phenomenon characterized by doppelgangers, where each screen becomes a fragment of a self, shimmering like a mirage before disappearing into the ether.
Today, we navigate the nebulae of the internet, sifting through glowing shards of 2020’s digital commons. Often, we fail to remember where we left our true essence, buried in a cloud of data, somewhere between the bytes and the bandwidth.
