Triptychs


Moby Video

I feel that this video is the most valid depiction of our society today. The entire video is shown through the perspective of a young boy. He sees everyone in the world trapped by cell phones. We have learned to rely on our cell phones too much. It has gotten out of hand. All we do 24/7 is have our faces in our phones. We have shut everything out of our lives and all we care about is social media, our appearances, and our devices. These cell phones have made us into monsters and we have lost all connection to human life. There was a part in the video when the young boy was on a subway and he kept bumping into people. The people turned around and grew into this hideous monster, rather than a caring citizen asking how he was. There was another part in the video when the young boy was walking on the sidewalk and kept trying to rip peoples phones out of their hands and get their attention. All the people ignored the young boy, and did not put their phones down. We are addicted and it has become a real issue. This video is inspiring and I would like to share this with a lot of people I know that have this issue.
