WebEnertia sponsored our very own Vivian Mak’s senior art gallery show “I’m Mobile” at San Jose State University. The “I’m Mobile” gallery invokes an awareness of today’s culture’s intimacy, relationship and dependence on mobile phones.

The mobile phone has evolved from the simple device to make calls without the use of landlines that was introduced in the 80’s, to the single most essential device of our lives, changing our cultural norms and values.

Less a telephone, today’s mobile phone is a convergence of technological advancements that make our emotional connection to them inevitable. The mobile phone is a camera, an email system, an entertainment portal, a carrier of business data, and a method of commerce.

They allow us to share and document our lives, create and maintain relationships, make fashion statements, perform business operations, and even mobilize political causes.

They can invoke emotions of isolation and anxiety when they’re forgotten or lost, just like they invoke happiness and calm when they’re with us.

A great show and a job well done by Vivian!
