A New Kind of Intimacy Emergying Yesterday, while I was walking on the street, I saw a family sat in a bar terrace. They seemed to be the typical family formed by middle-age parents and two teenagers. So far,everything was normal. But there was something in their behaviour that surprised me. There was not face-to-face conversation amongst them! Instead of that, they, including both parents, were chatting away but not each other, because they were only tapping away at their own devices. For a while, I thought there was aconnection issue with them. Didn`t they have anything to talk each other? Had these parents failed teaching good manners and etiquette to their sons?. At the first time I got upset. However, later I thought about to find out more about how to intimacy and social rules are changing as a result of new technologic, smartphone in particular. Therefore, I started googling this topic and I found that, according to Iain Sinclair, British writer, poet, and filmmaker, not only a different kind of intimacy is emerging, which involves checking out device at social events, such as dinner with friends, but also our body is changing toward this new challenge, for example, our neck muscles are changing – to make it easier to look down all the time at our devices. Maybe, it would be sound weird or idiot (A new lamarkism?) now, but not in the long term.
