Something Existential
This is one of those times in which I feel like I should be able to come up with some great analysis of the following cartoon that indicates all of the multi-layered jabs at culture. We have isolated ourselves so much through technology, given our mental faculties (particularly memory) over to technology, our experiences are so mediated that we must question the very nature of experience....But at the same time, we've never been closer/had more access to friends and social groups, we've never had so much knowledge so readily available, and we've never had such multi-layered experiences as we do now.
(if the link ceases to exist I may put the cartoon up just for the sake of it)
(I've cross-posted this at kubernetes and will be updating it from there)
