In this video essay, I will take a look at the history of the cellular phone and it's usage over the years, focusing on the transformation of a voice communications tool, to that of hand held miniature computer. Specifically, I will look into how voice communications, while important, are now taking a secondary, if not tertiary role to facilitate communications.
To examine this issue in depth, I will conduct interviews with three separate generations of users: 1) Teenagers, 13-19 years old, 2) Adults, 20 - 40, and 3) Older adults, 40+. By performing interviews, I hope to shed light on how various age groups view the cellular phone and gain an understanding of how the technology is being used and where the technology might be headed.
