On Broadcasting Our Lives
AKA Social Media and Expectation vs. Connection
A meditation on the phenomenon of how broadcasting our lives creates the feeling that you ‘should’ know about things in your friend’s lives, feeling shame when you ‘missed’ something major and people no longer telling each other about developments directly because of the assumption of awareness created by broadcasting. Real connection is built through ‘narrow’ casting your life to audiences of one.
