Cuddles goes on an adventure: A Photo Essay

My partner and I set up scenes for my childhood teddy-dog on a recent camping adventure. Cuddles has done a good amount of travelling but doesn't usually come camping. There's a link to the album below. Enjoy!

Turkle’s talk left me missing my flip phone

In the summer of 2013, I lived in a cabin with no cell reception and no internet. This allowed me, for the first time in my adult life, to escape the constant bombardment of digital media. I learned to be alone and connected more strongly with myself. Five years later and I have reentered the digital world. Sherry Turkle’s Ted Talk, Connected, but alone, reminded me of the power of disconnecting. It made me pine for the days of the flip phone, where cell phones were used as tools and not as notification-buzzing interruption machines.
