Geo Barcan: Kid of the internet

KID OF THE INTERNET 

SELF PUBLISHED, 2021 

KID OF THE INTERNET is a collection of visual and written essays about growing up in a post-industrial, abandoned town in Romania, in the midst of technological advancement. Autobiographical and at points fictional, the publication follows the life-changing impact of the infiltration of the internet in the author’s home town community, as well as tracing a history of the world wide web in Easters Europe. The stories look at the relationship between the working class and technology, including the discrepancies created in the rural, yet industrial landscape when the internet emerged into everyone’s houses. The publication moves from analyzing human-software relationships to love stories and personal, intimate encounters with the darker sides of the internet.
