'DAY 6

After doing a brain storm and finding pictures that to me represent "antisocialism" i came to the conclusion that the main thing that social networking sites are missing is the actual person itself. A screen is not able to transform itself into "you" and will never be able to despite the amount of pictures you add to your profile or the way you "pimped" it. It will always remain a simple webpage that stores information that you add to it. The personal aspect will never be found behind a screen. Social websites, and technology as a whole have made people lazy, people rather send their friends a small little message on facebook or hyves or call them on there phone then actually go visit them personally. Technology therefore has created a barrier that prevents us from having these personal relationships with others.

Having this in mind i starting to search for a way in which i could represent this idea. I then came accross this commercial that strives for a smoke free life "voor een rook vrij leven". It shows a man that goes through everyday life but is surounded by a bubble that prevents him from having any personal contact with anyone or anything what so ever. Even though he goes to a party, sees people their and talks to them and stuff, this bubble constantly creates this annoying barrier that he cannot cross.
