(Dis)connected: Reducing Loneliness in a Digitally Interconnected Universe

Early humans began their journey of communication nearly 700,000 years ago, creating simple messages around fires in small, intimate tribes. Fast forward to today, people worldwide are more connected than ever before through digital technologies, with the recent hype around Virtual Reality (VR) at the forefront of this digital revolution. However, like any technology, there…
