Big Thinkers - Sherry Turkle [Sociologist]

Big Thinkers is a former ZDTV (later TechTV) television program. It featured a half-hour interview with a "big thinker" in science, technology, and other fields. Interviews were filmed in a 16:9 format and intercut with public domain material from the Prelinger Archives. This archival footage (mostly film clips from the 1940's and 50's) was used to create visual metaphors highlighting the speaker's points.
This episode features Sherry Turkle. She is Abby Rockefeller Mauze Professor of the Social Studies of Science and Technology at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology and a clinical psychologist. Born in New York City in 1948, she has focused her research on psychoanalysis and culture and on the psychology of people's relationship with technology, especially computer technology and computer addiction.

    I appreciate your ambition and passion on the many venues you've refined. The world could use 2,000,000,000 more of you. Inter personal interconnected. Allowance of the whole collective at the same time.

    'the type' ? What is this type you refer to? I see an academic sharing her concerns for man's interaction with technology and the relationship to his construction of identity.

    What this doesn’t discuss is how the child eventually becomes the attention seeking individual that makes others dependent on them.

    I hate this trend in informational videos that needs to always include lousy music. As if we need to be entertained while listening to interesting narrative. Shows a lack of the editor's confidence in the subject. Awful trend.
