This combination of machine and man has always intrigued me. As we started at birth being monitored by machines to keep track of our health we became low level cyborgs. We were dependent upon technology for out needs. As westerners we depend heavily on technology and as our dependence grows stronger so does our use. Over time we will lose our humanity and converge with machine. The two will be hard to distinguish. This is our transformation from low level cyborg to high level.
David Hess said, ”The future, so it is said, promises an deepening relationship with the machine.” This though is soon becoming a reality as we have a relationship with our phones, computers, and other interactive technologies we do become tied physically and mentally to the object. I wrote about this problem in my adventure report and essay because of my relationship with my Iphone. My Iphone was a part of my being because it could replace some of my evolutionary traits. Without my phone I became less of a being, because that machine was a part of my everyday life. This connection with technology is going to cause problems in the future as technology advances and this relationship becomes deeper.
