Technology surrounds us. It has infiltrated almost every aspect of our lives. I sometimes wonder if being so reliant on technology is good for us. The farther we remove ourselves from the world that sustains us…that is to say, the more removed we are from mother earth the less in touch with our humanity we become. I’m convinced that that is not healthy. In fact, it’s a frightening thought to consider that the technology we develop is progressing faster than we can fully comprehend it’s effect on us and the world we live in.
I’m no luddite. Far from it. In addition to being a musician I spend my days as a technology consultant/interactive strategist & developer. I use technology everyday. I am fascinated by technology. But, more and more I find that true clarity only comes to me when I step away from the cacophony of technology and listen to the sounds of life.
And to that, I am proud to say that I sometimes like to sit in a candlelit room, play acoustic guitar and laugh maniacally at the gods of electricity.
