Technology is moving so rapidly in quantum leaps...
I cannot even catch my breath following it
We get blindfolded when so entangled with the trivial
Do we ever stop for a bit and wonder, what kind of illusion we are living in...?

Are we ready? Scary but true
Siri ends up being my best friend.

Throughout his sixty-year career as folklorist, ethnographer, criminologist, filmmaker, and journalist, Bruce Jackson has taken photographs of family, friends, people he worked with, people he studied, and people he encountered. Ways...
