    Tomorrow, and tomorrow, and tomorrow

    Two kids meet in a hospital gaming room in 1987. One is visiting her sister, the other is recovering from a car crash. The days and months are long there. Their love of video games becomes a shared world – of joy, escape and fierce competition. But all too soon that time is over, fades from view. When the pair spot each other eight years later in a crowded train station, they are catapulted back to that moment. The spark is immediate, and together they get to work on what they love – making games to delight, challenge and immerse players, finding an intimacy in digital worlds that eludes them in their real lives. Their collaborations make them superstars.

    Screen time permeates nearly every waking moment. Our work and social lives play out through our computers and phones, on email, social media, video conference calls and gaming servers. But what is all this exposure to screens really doing to our health, our sleep, and our relationships? Pete Etchells, Professor of Psychology at Bath Spa University, studies the way screens affect our brains. In ‘Unlocked’, he delves into the real science behind the hype and panic. He lifts the lid on mainstream panic and reveals how little we have to fear, and the great deal we have to gain, by establishing a positive relationship with our screens and asking ourselves some essential, nuanced questions about how we use them.
