“My phone camera can’t be trusted to document my life with accuracy — my memories become distorted by the screen and the lens. If my eyes could screenshot, the reminiscing would never end. I could get so caught up in looking at my life over and over, until it lost its flavour, that I might never make a new memory again. 

If my eyes could screenshot serves as a visual representation of the deep-rooted presence of technology within my relationships with myself and those around me.”
