DSKNECTD

500 million websites. 6.5 billion cell phones. 17 trillion bits of data. Connecting the human race. Or disconnecting it.

6.9(11)
Released:October 11, 2013
Runtime:1h 38m
Status:Released

As clichés go, in 1999 the World as we knew it was about to change - and we'd been expecting it. Since childhood we'd been promised that the 21st century would bring us dramatic new technologies like flying cars and Utopian cities. Instead it bought us the smart-phone, social media, and virtual societies. And as it turns out these technologies began to transform society almost as dramatically as the moon colonies we'd been expecting. Now over a decade into the revolution, 'DSKNECTD' explores how digital communication technology is profoundly changing the way we interact and experience each other - for the good and for the bad.
