story telling

i was thinking about how people upload millions of pictures all the time showing their adventures and what not. i suddenly realized that there's no more storytelling, back in the days you had 24 shots to capture your adventure unless you had a lot of film. people could see those 24 shots and be like oh what happened here, it's not the same when you have 240 shots capturing every moment and pretty much explaining the story. storytelling is a dying form of expression. storytelling is a remarkable thing, cus when you hear the story, having not seen anything the storyteller is talking about. you use your imagination to create the picture. no need to use your imagination if everything is displayed for you in photographs. technology is holding us back from expanding our imaginations.
