"However, during this small adventure, it occurred to me, once again, that I am far more reliant on my connectivity than I realize. Even without being half-machine, like a cyborg, I’m am just as dependent on my power and connection to the digital world. (...) Perhaps it is an oxymoron or a misnomer to claim to be an “organic cyborg,” but even with no inorganic body parts, technology plays such a strong role in my life that I feel less complete, less active, and less engaged, when I am unplugged."
