In this episode of Questions of Courage, Nathaniel discusses the effects of digital technology on young people today, and particularly how the youth's experience contrasts and compares with generations of the recent past. This discussion touches on digital avatars, behavioral psychology, and a picture-based consciousness that began in the 1960’s, which has become prevalent and foundational to our experience of the world today.References:Matt Richtel series on adolescent mental health in the New York Times on Sherry Turkle - “Alone Together”Patricia Lockwood - “No One Is Talking About This”Tristan HarrisShoshana Zuboff, “The Age of Surveillance Capitalism”Jane GoodallQuestions of Courage is a project of the Youth Section at the Goetheanum, in collaboration with Goetheanum TV.
