I don’t like cameras, or to be exact, being in front of them.
Cos our behaviors are altered when in a social environment/being watched by someone else. The proliferation of recorders and the emergence of social media further exacerbated this, feeding people with the worthless attention currency.
Then it comes to a question: “Are you living your life?/Has the definition of “your life” changed?”
Since we are a social animal, our life dynamics change as the social construct does, materialistically and essentially. If we do rough mental estimation, the % of time amount we spend in a day just for ourselves/without consideration for others’ existence has shrunk down significantly.
But I stubbornly choose to be left behind, doing things in the obsolete way: JOMO (Joy of missing out) instead of FOMO, being nobody instead of somebody, lurking into a corner of nature without letting everyone know.
Living for the sake of living, not for the show.
Costly, but worth thinking about.
