As a recovering liberal individualist who once unquestioningly subscribed to the epistemological framework posited by a Western, visually constructed notion of subjectivity, I am wary of any activity that unknowingly contributes to the perpetuation of that framework as universal. In many ways the consumption of the iPod parallels my road trip, and I want to question the unreflexive relationship to technology and society that I see iPod users demonstrating in the streets and subways of New York City and elsewhere. What does it mean to theorize the iPod as a bridge, and what gaps does it span? If iPod users embody Haraway's conception of the post-modern cyborg, what borders are they blurring? What boundaries are they reifying?
