As digital technologies gain prominence over their analogue predecessors, how do we retain some of the design and cultural principles that shaped technologies like the radio or the television - those that promote living and engaging better as a society?
When it comes to technology, we have been socialised to be more concerned with racing toward the future, toward improved versions of ourselves and what we are able to do with the tools we create. As a society, we treat the cultural impact of our design choices with loose integrity. When we do this, however, we fail to recognise how we are shaped by the technology we create, for the better and the worse.
Today, more than 8 out of 10 people own a smartphone in Dakar, Senegal's most populated region. Yet analogue technologies like the TV and radio continue to be beloved sources of content, information, and entertainment for us, and for many people around the world. There is so much to be learned about why that is the case, still.
