The Digital Rocking Chair's insight:
Robert Pratten: "Stories are the way we make sense of the world. Our minds can’t deal with randomness and we see connections, causes and reasons even where there are none. Whether we are happy or sad, positive or negative, this is often the result of the story we construct – it’s the meaning we attribute to events and things that without human interpretation have no meaning. So powerful is story that the life we lead today is a result of the stories we told ourselves in the past.
We are entering an age of fluid reality."
good read exploring the potential impact of new technologies forcing a paradigm shift in our "life storytelling"
