What an interesting read. The central theme seems to be , " slow down, and rediscover what makes us human". Or, for us, " Go bush, discover your Country, discover yourself. " I do believe we are becoming slaves to technology, clones of our former selves, where AI is taking over. Have a look at the new 4x4's, no longer do you have to think, just turn a switch, the car drives itself. You don't even have to concentrate, technology keeps you in your lane. Sometimes we do feel like a fish out of its place.
An extract from the article.;
"For a moment, I’m reminded of a passage toward the end of “The Fish of Lijiang,” when the protagonist discovers schools of fish swimming in the waterways. At first sight, they seem to be hovering calmly in the water, but as he looks closer he sees they are struggling to maintain their position. Once in a while, a fish gets pushed out of formation. “But soon,” the passage continues, “tails fluttering, they fight their way back into place.”"
