The Tartan: We have access to other worlds in a way we never have before. We can watch wars, protests, and politics play out minute by minute on the geopolitical stage from the comfort of our own homes. However, despite this unprecedented connectivity, we are isolated in a way that we never have been before. With the bans on international and even local travel, we can only see the day-to-day lives of those who live in our direct surroundings. While we very comfortably bear witness to the major events occurring abroad, the quotidian details of the individual lives living through these events remain hidden.
