    Kindness/Hate

    We see some of the best parts of humanity supporting and helping each other through digital technology, but we also see the worst and most awful aspects of who we are online. How do we balance all of that? How do we make sense of all of this existing in the same online space? What can we do to combat hate and ultimately be kinder both online - and off. In this episode of Dear Digital Future, Rispah, Rehan and Jovia discuss the challenges of bringing kindness to the fore in online systems that sometimes feel like they encourage and preference hate. Produced by PROJECT ROCKIT and our National Youth Collective with support from the Telstra Foundation.

    Efficiency/Procrastination

    Digital technology has made us more productive and efficient, but we also use it as a distraction and the endless scroll can drive procrastination. Adi & Rispah share their insights into the ways technology helps and hinders our productivity and find the value in both of those seemingly opposite ways of being. Produced by PROJECT ROCKIT and our National Youth Collective with support from the Telstra Foundation.
