Personal Insecurity and the Anthropocene - What Are People Experiencing in Their Media Use?
Language: English
The normalization of telecommuting and the use of media to maintain intimacy since the latest pandemic may have promoted a rethinking of work and life. How work and relationships are experienced digitally and what are their hopes and challenges will be discussed in this session.
If we want a hopeful future in the post-capitalist world, there are several conditions. One of those conditions is to stop overproduction, which will make individuals anxious about their works. But if it is possible to reduce the amount of work and still live well, we can choose to do so. We experienced alternative ways of working through the media since the latest pandemic. And our efforts have been made to maintain the intimacy of every situation remotely. What are the lessons to be learned in the Anthropocene from these experiences?
We would like to examine reports on new aspects of friendships, family relationships, professional relationships and etc. in a digital society, to explore the post-capitalist world.
