Who am I and why do you care?

So, many people may wonder who this guy is going around town standing for people loving their technology. Why does he do it? What does it all mean? Or whats the point? Well, I wonder that too sometimes. I just know that my heart wants people to enjoy each other and all the ways that technology enables that. I see, all to often, technology either driving us apart, or making it easier for us to be alone. But that is not its purpose. Technology is supposed to make our lives easier yes, but not so that we can be alone. I dream of a world where all of our technology is setup in a way so that we can actually get to what we should be doing...connecting emotionally with one another. We have all gotten so caught up in what is available that does not require a human and the ways that we "need" to take care of ourselves that we forgot the point. Why do we work? To give us money so that we can enjoy our life with our family and friends. Why do we buy phones? So we can connect with those important to us quickly and easily. Why do we have music players? I know, this one seems hard, but think about it. We love music!!! And what is music? People connecting with other people through from their hearts, their souls, the deepest most intimate parts of themselves. We have MP3 players so that we can hear those songs from the heart, connect with the songwriters and feel connected. To feel what they are and from within us. The problem, though, is that technology should be connecting us more real time, not statically and offline. I know this starts to sound pie in the sky, but I truly believe that the piece missing in all too many technologies and initiatives, is the human element. Why are we installing that server?!?!?! What is the point? Not so we can have more hardware to babysit. So we can share, collaborate, connect, be with, and a part of, something bigger than ourselves. Technology is our nervous system. Now, my role in all of this, is to be a stand for that. I am a stand for people connecting emotionally by way of their technology. To stand for remembering why they have all of this in the first place. To remind them, in the midst of their IT projects, what the point of it all is. To help them connect with their staff and customers more deeply and more often. To guide them through in such a way that brings about a more emotionally present and fulfilling experience. A shift in their consciousness about their IT and its purpose.
