It’s a unique privilege to have been born at the right moment and witness the gradual but powerful shift from the analog to the digital era. The disappearance of traditional technologies like vinyl records, cassettes, and photo stores, as well as the replacement of Betamax and VHS by binary evolution, have been truly remarkable.

We have witnessed a profound transformation in the way we consume and produce media, as the digital revolution has given rise to new forms of communication and creative expression. It has enabled us to access and share information with unprecedented ease and speed, while also revolutionizing industries like music, film, and photography.

However, this shift has not been without its challenges and drawbacks, including the loss of the physicality and tactile experience of handling tangible media, and the potential risks associated with data security and privacy in the digital realm.

As we continue to navigate this ever-changing landscape, it’s important to appreciate both the benefits and drawbacks of the digital era, while also recognizing the value of preserving our analog heritage.
