A great read on the shift from tactile experiences to visual ones as touching becomes the new taboo.

Recent advancements in communication technology have enabled billions of people to connect over great distances using mobile phones, yet little is known about how the frequent presence of these devices in social settings influences face-to-face interactions. In two experiments, we evaluated the extent to which the mere presence of mobile communication devices shape relationship quality in dyadic settings. In both, we found evidence they can have negative effects on closeness, connection, and conversation quality. These results demonstrate that the presence of mobile phones can interfere with human relationships, an effect that is most clear when individuals are discussing personally meaningful topics.

The sexual freedom in the West, which I yearned for while growing up in Vietnam, turns out to be quite an illusion. The incessant circulation of pornographic images does not translate into more meaningful possibilities of pleasure and interpersonal exchange. On the contrary, it standardizes an efficient and convenient form of desire, removes the friction of social negotiation, and produces a compulsive freedom of movement that captures our bodies within the flow of capital.

‘‘The elite culture of the twentieth century has left its mark on our current media landscape in the form of what Bolter calls “popular modernism.” Meanwhile, new forms of digital media have emerged and magnified these changes, offering new platforms for communication and expression.‘‘
