Take a moment and look at the device you're reading this article on. It probably costs more than the average used car from the 1990s, has processing power that would put the entire Apollo 11 mission to shame, and a camera that uses artificial intelligence to conjure up a sunny day in total darkness. All of this is, of course, wonderful, technically perfect, sterile, and... boring as hell. In a world where every memory we have is digitally corrected and smoothed with at least three filters, carrying around a pound of analog gear seems like utter madness. It's almost like deciding to drive to your morning meeting in a loud, smelly V8 petrol car with no power steering instead of a sleek electric crossover.
