Ode to the Screen

The technology in our homes is incredible. It provides information, facilitates deep learning, and offers new ways to connect.

It is a platform for gaming, media, music and connection.

Its value is undeniable.

But we worry about the mindless consumption. The doom-scrolling. the quick, empty dopamine hits that keep kids glued to a device.

Worse yet, the tech and media industry is designed to not only do this, but push it.

They're not just aware of the addiction loop—they're actively building and monetizing it.
