flat and lonely...

we are lonely and we do like flat.

scenario:
we tweet, we facebook, we stare at our phones even when we are out with friends, not to mention we do all that when we are alone with ourselves or alone but among all other people (e.g. travelling on tube or buses).

interpretation:
1. if our 3D physical world where we are in is exciting enough, why would we stare at our 2D phone-screens? apparently the world we are in is not exciting enough, so we prefer looking at the flat screens and get more exciting information from them.
2. even we are with friends, we are still lonely because we are not satisfied to share happiness just with the friends that are right beside us, but we want to share with all other friends we have, even they are on the other side of the world. [and the fact is: even our friends are right there beside us, we will still tweet each other at the same moment...]

respond to point 1, the spaces of shopping are already supposed to be one of the most exciting parts of the physical world...but for it to be more exciting, it is inevitable that the "screen technologies" do their job and friends on the other end of the virtual world give us a company.

_just a little thought
