.::. Perceptions and Surrogates.::.

I'm finding myself consuming less and less media now, I don't know if this is a good thing or not. I suppose I still listen to the music I have for ages, and I still watch the movies I already own, but I'm finding myself to be more selective. I did however watch a newer movie recently: Surrogates.

I really enjoyed it actually, there wasn't much at all that might be considered objectable in anyway. I think the message is actually really in tune with what we've been discussing in class concerning the internet, along with my research. People are becoming too dependent on the internet for socialization. They are letting it take the place of face-to-face interaction, which is worrying. People are starting to get worse at reading non-verbal cues and communication. They aren't getting practice in during the formative years, instead they are spending time online hiding behind a computer screen pretending to be whoever they want to be.
