Review of Connected: An Autoblogography About Love, Death & Technology (2011) by Jon R — 16 Feb 2013
Connected is essential viewing for anyone who participates in, thinks about, and perhaps has some concerns about how we as humans connect with each other in this digital age. Tiffany Shlain is probably one of our most important filmmakers today - pushing the bounderies of communication and all of its implications.
This film is not only a consideration of how we relate to each other as human beings in the digital age - but as importantly - how those connections - and the way that we connect affect us both positively and at times negatively.
How are we transforming as a human race with our digital appendages? How can we retain what is human about us? How wonderful it is that we can connect with people across the planet in ways never dreamed of - but also what is the price of that digital connection.
As a parent - this is a must - and a must to watch with your children - and gift and share with your friends and family. It should be required viewing in middle school - and should be required viewing for you.
