the people we need us to be
Topic: Miscellaneous 7:23 am EDT, Sep 28, 2015

Samantha Power:

There are great benefits to connectedness, but we haven't wrapped our minds around the costs.

Sherry Turkle:

Even a silent phone disconnects us.

Liliana Segura:

The truth is, yes, even "hello" can feel like an unwelcome demand.

Emma Healey:

Our greatest contemporary inventions are all just new and more complicated ways to be lonely for and about each other, at speeds that once seemed unimaginable.

Sherry Turkle:

In solitude we find ourselves; we prepare ourselves to come to conversation with something to say that is authentic, ours. If we can't gather ourselves, we can't recognize other people for who they are. If we are not content to be alone, we turn others into the people we need them to be. If we don't know how to be alone, we'll only know how to be lonely.

Some of the most crucial conversations you will ever have will be with yourself.

Jack Cheng:

Remember that no matter where you go, you always end up alone with your thoughts.

Jaron Lanier:

If you love a medium made of software, there's a danger that you will become entrapped in someone else's recent careless thoughts. Struggle against that!

Mat Johnson:

Instead of a wealthy lifestyle made possible by sweatshops and slave wages in distant lands, the Positron Project's innovation is that now the exploited and those who benefit from the exploitation are the same people.
