How does technology affect the human brain?

To further understand how technology affects the human brain, I have been doing self experiments with myself or my family. So far I already know that in today's world technology controls and connects almost everything.

I found that if i'm not either sleeping or eating i'm on my phone. I've just started keeping a log on how many hours i'm spending on my phone or other electronic devices. Every day i'm on my phone for more 5 hours, that's actually normal compared to other people in the world who spend eight or more hours on their phone or electronic device.

This information shocked me to find out how much time some people actually spend on technology. I feel that if we don't do anything this will increase. So next time you get on your phone think about how much time you spend.

How does technology affect the human brain?


What is the human brain?
The human brain is the command center for the nervous system. It controls everything. It is our being.

What is technology?
Technology is our way of life. It's never ending. There is no way telling how far will take us in our life.

I got the bass for this project when my mom asked me to go 24 hours without my phone. I didn't last ten minutes without turning it on again. My brain reacted to my phone as comfort or privacy. How long can you go without your phone?
