Commute Culture

The images in this submission are a part of a larger body of work published as a hardcover book, entitled "Commute Culture". Commute Culture is an exploration through photography of the modern day life of commuters in big cities. The book is an observation on a degradation of humankind's social interaction thanks to the introduction of modern technology. Today we have the Internet in the palm of our hands. It may seem like an innocuous fact, but the impact that it has on people's lives is growing, to the point where it seems as though we are beginning to prefer virtual interaction with one another. Times have changed, and the illusion of friendship with others is growing because of our growing love for technological escapism. Commute Culture, through photography, takes an honest look at what's happening to our society thanks to the side-effects of portable technology.
