In a technology-driven society, an irony exists that the more “networked” we become in our digitized universe, the less connected and grounded we may feel. A virtual reality lacks the band-width for creating a deep sense of belonging to a specific time, place, and people. Our reach may be global, but there is a deep yearning within for identity and belonging to a local, geographic, face-to-face community where we know and are known, see and are seen, love and are loved — a place where we call home.
