Book Description
Shown in various exhibitions, now finally available as a graphic novel: The " Smartphonezombies Diary" The press writes about the drawings and texts: "Like a mass psychosis" taz. die tageszeitung. " The smartphone zombies " Hamburger abendblatt " The Smartphone Zombies" are among us!"" MOPO Smartphone abuse in the final stage. Thorsten Kirsch's zombies look like shock images for cell phone packaging, which lawmakers will soon prescribe to manufacturers to warn users of the consequences. ...... April 14: Shopping mall ...it's come to this, I'm starting to put device users in relation to the total number of people present. A thought occurs to me. I pick up my smartphone and check via wiki. Mass psychosis: "Dissolution of the rational and volitionally controlled behavior of larger groups of people in emergency situations (catastrophes, mass accidents) and under increased mental pressure; favored by instinct proximity, ego weakness and increased influenceability of the collective structure" That's how it feels! I forgot to count myself! Satire is for me a healing means: it may almost everything and stops with "Smartphonezombies Diary" before no society group. Unlike scientists, physicians, psychologists, I do not need to prove anything and there are and need no provable studies. The view behind the pictures and texts allows to step back and observe what is going on with the people who run over and into one's path every day. Satire creates a framework to step out of the digital comfort zone in a cheerful, biting way. I didn't exempt myself! Have fun! Thorsten Kirsch
