Personal Project What has digitalisation done to us as human beings? Our behavior in public has visibly changed. When I get on the train I see everyone staring at their phones. There's no more waking up quietly, most people check their work mail or social media. I know what it's like to build an invisible wall around me and completely shut myself off from what's happening around me. The current developments around Corona seem to only reinforce this isolating behavior. This work investigates to what extent it is possible to show the contradiction of shutting off your immediate environment, but at the same time creating your own digital world in which everything is possible.
