2020 Vision

2019, Robert Good

Robert Good examines the meaning of words in digital reality. The meaning of words has become a fleeting phenomenon in the digital world. When we talk about 'paying' or 'shopping' we no longer mean handing over banknotes and coins to a person behind a cash register. Concepts such as 'virus' and 'contaminate' have taken on different meanings in the virtual world. Dramatic events such as the pandemic can also completely change the meaning of words. Instantly enhanced by the power of digital media. With Covid no one thinks about a beer anymore. And if you read the word 'distance' in a, you immediately fill in: 1.5 meters.
