The Death Of Conversation: I Photograph People Obsessed With Their Smartphones

I like Lemming tards, especially the ones with Marine Goop on them. Damn auto-correct.

Hypocrit

says the f*****g moron in a comments section of a s****y clickbait website

I don't know, but being somewhat older, and having lived through the years when conversation was an art, I rarely witness it anymore.

We don' t need study . We can say by observation taht tose f****n phones just make people more and mor addict , antisocial and stupid !

You took pictures of people while they were using their phone, doesn't mean they are stuck on it 24/7.

Gillaume remind me never to hang out with you. Wouldn't want to take you away from your brilliant Twitter proclamations.

This is just my own observation altho read there was study that shows people bond less when they just have their phones out, not even in use

It so depends... usually, my bf reads his newspaper when on his iPad... so it gives us an opportunity to discuss actuality more often.

I don't think it takes a scientist to officially document an obvious trend.

how about you? Aren't you a serious study? Do we need a serious study to know whether or not it's serious?

Yes, take a look at interpersonal communication studies from the past 15 years. However, who needs a "study" to notice the obvious change?

http://www.alonetogetherbook.com yes, psychology studies of technology, read this book.

True, this is not about cellphones, this is about people not communicating with each other, this is about our detachment & self-absorption

Body language gives clues that even children understand. But the phone is a unequivocal barrier.
