Psychological and social impacts of digital culture

Overview

Discussions regarding the impact of digital culture have focused on both psychological and sociological dimensions. Psychiatrist Paolo Crepet has noted that constant social media usage may lead to emotional desensitization and a loss of emotional nuance in younger generations. He also observed sociological shifts in how subsequent generations of immigrants interact with social structures and noted a contradiction in how individuals protest digital capitalism using its own platforms.

Artistic and media explorations have further examined these themes. Artist Mariano Mazzelli used photographic installations to critique how digital screens consume collective memory. In the entertainment sector, new film and gaming projects are addressing digital dependency, isolation, and surveillance. These include a psychological film exploring the dark side of the internet and the development of a psychological adventure game by the Turkish studio Error Thing, which focuses on identity and surveillance in a digital society.
