Technology Takeover!

This is another University project and I have chosen to address the rapid increase on dependancy of technology! 

Every single day a faster and better invention is being made...over the past 50 years we've evolved so much as human beings but what have we actually accomplished. We now L.O.L instead of actually laughing, we accept hundreds of friend requests every year on social media sites which are actually making us anti-social and keeping us from spending time with our true friends... We are getting lazier with the most simplest of things, spelling, maths, even day to day conversations are now abbreviated to the shortest they can be...my question is, what are we all in such a rush for anyway? I have noticed all around me that the worst thing that could happen in our day is that our mobiles run down to 30% battery, we panic and flee to our chargers making us plugged in but tuned out. 

Technology isn't all bad, I mean how else would I be addressing this topic without it, how would I fulfil my dream job without it? How would I be able to speak to my friends and family that are all over the world?....My question is however...When will we be satisfied with what we have created, when will we say enough is enough?...When our jobs are completely taken over by machinery? When we're cast off the top of the food chain? When we look up from our phones and realise that the world we had when we were growing up has disappeared into a cold metal one instead and this is what our children and grandchildren will ever know...No countrysides, no shops due to online shopping taking over, no playgrounds because they're all too busy playing on their own mobile phones, IPads, laptops, Xbox, Playstation and whatever new invention we create next to distract the children from seeing and experiencing the real world and nature....When do we say enough is enough?...

Here are my final 5 images ...
