I have the feeling that this Blog is running out of life. That it is in its final moments, for various reasons.
Today I wanted to think about the relationship between the ideas of pushing forward-acceptance-adaptation and replacement. Yesterday I watched InRealLife, which I don't believe it's a superb documentary. I also don't think it is a very insightful documentary, but it has nevertheless, a bunch of thought-provoking moments that are worth a write, one of them being the idea of replacement.
There is a section where one of the speakers talks about the interactions that the internet mediates. He goes on to ask; what are these mediations replacing?
The reason I thought this was genius is because, he's not arguing that the young generation will or won't adapt, but the fact that they quite inevitably do, and that this adaptation conforms a transformation in itself. The question to follow; what kind of transformation? and are we willing to accept it?
This is beautiful since it opens up alternative scenarios, since the mind can sometimes find itself in a trap, lucidity comes when least expected. Feelings are a good parameter but no one listens to them(?)
In this mini-post my conclusion would be a call for action. For us to evaluate alternative scenarios when we face discomfort or disagreement. How would they be? How could I put them in place? What are the implications? These mini-assessments will open up your imagination, and hopefully (Microsoft)windows of possibility.
