It's an odd feeling, knowing that we live with this belief that technology brings us closer together. Yet simultaneously it does indeed isolate us. Turkle gave us examples both verbally and visually of this case. In instances where we are surrounded by people, we isolate ourselves, devoting all of our attention to a little device, almost completely enclosing us from the outside world. For a device we choose to believe brings us closer to people, its a tough pill to swallow when you realize it does the opposite as well.
Ha - I just watched this one from Justins blog - you guys did a great job - very creative - it's kind of funny how you're in the opening also but it works because it looks like you guys go right back to the girl with the purple hair (cool colour) - and that closing - Boom - great acting! Cheers
