This is not a new thought. From Rent (Jonathan Larson, 1996): --- Roger: Mark hides in his work Mark: From what? Roger: From facing your failure, facing your loneliness, facing the fact you live a lie. Yes, you live a lie. Tell you why. You're always preaching not to be numb, when that's how you thrive. You pretend to create and observe, when you really detach from feeling alive. Mark: Perhaps it's because I'm the one of us to survive. --- For those unfamiliar with Rent, Mark is a documentary filmmaker who constantly has the camera rolling. To a great extent, technology has turned all of us into that, and Larson's observations apply.
