I have enjoyed this semesters class of 628- Culture and Technology. I thought it would be more of a course regarding how various cultures use technology and how they have adapted to the ever-changing field of technology. However, I have found that this course shows how technology itself has become a culture. It has done so to the point that it could be an all consuming culture or Technopoly. It feeds on information and how fast and readily it is available, not necessarily how accurate this is the information. It becomes like kudzu, an entangled vine that grows and smothers everything in its path.
Keep aware that it can captivate you and eventually take you away without realizing that you have left everyone else behind. Or is it that you have been left behind while others have gone on with living and you are stuck in your tech fantasy world.
