What Konik is saying
“Thematising the ugly side of sublime technology development in Sonzero’s Pulse (2006) as an inadvertent critique of the ‘technocentricism’ of postmodernity” Konik, I. 2007
Konik is saying that humans are too reliant on technology for everything - people have lost sight of the need for physical contact, due to the fact that we're too focused on communicating via online means (internet + mobile devices). Without pc's and phones we wouldnt know what to do with ourselves - we are constantly looking at either a pc or a phone. Konik refers to this phenomenon as technocentrism. we have become slaves to technology - everything we do involes technology - we are lost and there is no turning back
