Abstract
Abstract Technology seems to be everywhere and anywhere in our daily lives. We have devices that allow us to communicate and interact with our work, our social circles, and the world at all times. This article explores and reflects on our attachment to technology and its impact on how we identify and relate to ourselves and others given the advent of sensory-based interactions such as touch, face, and voice recognition. Through the lens of intrapsychic, interpersonal, and systemic processes, the author reflects on the implications of these developments for script theory. He seeks to question, describe, and better understand how these processes affect our sense of reality so that our discourse as a community of practitioners shifts to a curious and accounting process.
