Sensory Isolation Chamber “The smartphone is a handheld version of a sensory isolation chamber.” @UndergroundAeon This seems utterly accurate to me. It explains the widespread social anxiety, people live with today. I feel we’ve lost a good deal of our humanity to this. How can you not? Primary relationship is with a device.
