Notes to Selfie: Bits of Truth in a Phoney World

“Today’s war is the war against reality. Truth is being bombarded; our perception besieged. A minefield of illusory facts surrounds us. Detonations in unconsciousness go unnoticed. Before our eyes, a virtual universe is manifesting, the seeds of which have been intentionally planted. We cultivate these seeds with our ignorance. We give truth the power of lie, lie the power of truth.” —John Mack

A pocket-sized book of thoughts, contemplations, and aphorisms, Notes to Selfie: Bits of Truth in a Phoney World addresses complex issues of human consciousness asking us to question:

Who are you in the Digital Age?

What might you become?

Are you still human, or are you already an avatar of your former Self?

Philosophical, witty, concerning, and eye-opening, the truths in Notes to Selfie serve as simple cues to deepen our understanding of our humanity vis-à-vis the relentlessly encroaching digital landscape. What introspection and awareness might such insights open for your own navigation within this unpredictable land of the near future?
