My project seeks to question the “real” nature of social networking technologies by considering tools such as Facebook

and Twitter in their most basic form:

as human-to-human interactions.

The goal is to define these technologies outside of the framework of computers and the Internet by considering what they would look like as “real world,” non-digital interactions.

I created a blog where these ideas could be explored, by means of drawings, photographs, internet “clippings” and writing.

I plan to continue to add my own sketches and other relevant things I come across, and also to get image and text submissions from other people exploring these ideas.
