Man & Machine: Where does the sense gone?

yuti — August 1, 2008 / 3:31 pm

Why do we have to accept new technologies? Who can guarantee that the new device will bring prosperity and welfare to our life? On the other hand, can we avoid change? For instance, traditional tribe who hasn’t wear any cloth yet, is it a matter of democracy–to let other people life as their beliefs, or it is a matter of government careless?

Human history tells us a lot about otherness. Someone will be labeled as a freak if s/he doesn’t wear cloth, like songs, eat rice like the mass do. The same case occurs with technology issue, someone who reject to use internet will lost their network through communication lifestyle. If in the old times, we prefer communicate face to face, nowadays, people choose their finger as their representative. How emotions are described through emoticons such as :( for sad, :) for happy, :’( (cry), etc. Do those emoticons really represent our feelings?
