Through the Looking Glass

"It is not just about adapting technologies to people, but also about people re-creating an environment that is increasingly mediated by technologies..."

Domestication of Media and Technology (Berker, Hartman, Punie and Ward), Open University Press 2006

Gazing
cooly
boxes
glass
and circuitry
in awe,
anticipation
later,
vanity -
vacantly -
closeness
bred by familiarity,
an indifference
inhabited
only by
intimacy
at one
at last
lost
unable
to look
unable
to see
on our own
