Do you ever feel like you’re trapped in the neverending present, letting modern technology entertain you while you’re waiting for the future to arrive? That’s the Bit Stream Lounge, the online waiting room we’ve all been spending time in during the era of social distancing and self-isolation. Addison’s Bit Stream Lounge mix asks you to reflect on how technology can be used to divide or connect. It asks you to think about how in a time where one can often feel surrounded by nefarious algorithms, the problem isn’t actually technology; it’s how we do or don’t choose to use it. As a species, humanity has a choice between two doors. We have all the tools we need to create a brighter future, but we have to want it. If your number had just been called in the Bit Stream Lounge, which door will you walk through?
