I cling desperately to this concept of atonement, of restoring what once was, and of leaving a legacy of what should be in the world of the wild.
It is this legacy of atonement that allows us to move one step closer to Thoreau’s dream of achieving “an entire heaven and entire earth.”

Historian Daniel Boorstin in his book "The Image" coined the term "pseudo-event" to describe the manufactured media landscape that was meant to appear authentic despite being "not spontaneous but comes about because someone has planned, planted, or incited it."

Today, many of us choose to live in a form of pseudo-reality governed by algorithmically-enabled individual experiences. Much of what passes for authentic experience today is vicarious and virtual.

What kind of person is formed in an increasingly digitized, mediated, hyperconnected, surveilled, and algorithmically governed world? What do we gain and what do we lose when we no longer talk about the Human Condition, but rather the User Experience?

The human condition is embodied, recognizes its fragility, frequently toggles between the mediated and unmediated, requires private spaces, and is finite. By contrast, the User Experience is disembodied and digital, it is trackable and databased and usually always mediate. It lacks privacy and promises no limits - even after death, when, as several new technologies promise, our digital remnants can be gathered and engineered into posthumous chatbots to comfort our grieving family members.

The philosopher Theodor Adorno decried the "false realism" created by television in 1954. He argued that we do not simply watch TV. TV also influences how we understand the world if we regularly watch it - our expectations and our common cultural concerns.

Digital technology shapes expectations on a greater scale and with more power than TV ever could. While broadcast television commercials were bound to a predetermined schedule, social media platforms feed uses carefully tailored streams of information meant to nudge their behavior in real time. This makes digital technology a far more aggressive tool to shape decision-making.

The company promises you will "feel closer than ever to the people you love and the things you enjoy" by not being in their actual presence, but by transporting those interactions to a "next-generation social VR platform" that will allow you to become your "true self" and "free yourself from earthly limitations." That "true self" can even become "digitally immortal," according to the company.

I struggle how to strike the correct balance between mediated and unmediated experiences and reckon daily with how much time I spend staring at screens rather than into the eyes of other human beings.

"Israeli military bombs only Catholic parish in Gaza, and snipers slay two women leaving mass"
December 18, 2023
"The only Catholic parish in Gaza and a convent serving nuns associated with the order of the late Mother Teresa both were targeted by Israeli Defense Forces Dec. 16, leaving two women dead, others injured and the convent in rubble."
"“An Israeli sniper shot and killed a mother and a daughter on Saturday as they left the church building inside the compound of the Holy Family Catholic Parish in Gaza,” reported Vatican News."
Absolved.

Imagine sharing a link to your fediverse account to someone not on the fediverse, hoping they follow you.
Now imagine instead that the link you share takes them to a beautiful yet simple landing page that carefully guides them to the ideal platform, geographically closest, and helps them through the onboarding process, recommends the best desktop/mobile client and then follows you from their new account.
Stop dreaming. I'm building this. Wanna help?
