How many of you are currently reading this article on your phone? Are you with other people that you could – and should – be having a conversation with? Well here’s that conversation starter. London-based street photographer Babycakes Romero has created a series entitled ‘The Death of Conversation’ in which he has photographed groups of people focused on their individual phones rather than each other. Romero hopes that his series will help us to “break free” of out tech-addiction, because it makes us “dull”. Take a look at the photos and let us know whether you agree: do we need to put our phones down and interact more often? Or are we over-reacting?
