AI, Algorithms, social media bans, scrolling, cancelling, echo chambers, representation. The fake, the real, the filtered in-between.

Honestly, where would we be without social media? It’s got solid highs and crash-and-burn lows - but hey, let’s figure it out together at Dear Digital Future - brought to you by Project Rockit’s National Youth Collective.

Dear Digital Future by PROJECT ROCKIT's National Youth Collective is an 8 part series where young Australians speak to their lived experience of the digital world across the continuum's of Fake/Real, Complex/Simple, Social/Isolated, Efficiency/Procrastination, Public/Private, Control/Agency, Likes/Dislikes and Kindness/Hate.

We know the digital world is a nuanced place and inspired by the work and data from the Australian Youth Digital Index and powered by the Telstra Foundation we look forward to engaging with you through provocative and passionate conversations.
