a requiem on the age of information
June 21, 2010
technological
philosophical
this is so complicated
i am lost in a world of synthetic noises and color
sound and sight
speakers and screens
why is it so difficult to
talk
to people
we are isolated in bubbles of media melancholy
do you even know who i am
(say anything
anything at all
as long as it has meaning)
escapist fantasies swirl around me
opportunities
freedom from reality
sunlight peeks through the blinds
illumination
i hope
that i am not the only one watching
