The Beast: Restless Awakening
The information age is to the human mind what the age of debauchery was to human identity. Our mind, dependent on information, images, games, communication and everything else that technology provides, is becoming an impulsive beast that needs constant feeding. Prior to this explosion of technology, we, the greater consciousness behind the beast, acted as its master and determined when, if and how it was fed. Just because the mind wanted to explore travel offers at midnight did not mean we had to get up to do it. Now, however, it is reversed; the beast has put us in the cage and it is we who run after it to satisfy its constant demands.
