LINE and Twitter have become commonplace, and the way we communicate has changed dramatically. Various personal information is accumulated through the internet without the individual's awareness, and situations arise where people are unconsciously defined by it. But are we becoming richer because of this? Isn't it the case that being surrounded by information is causing people to become isolated? Based on insights from anthropology, life sciences, and other fields, this is a stimulating dialogue that advocates for the necessity of 'the knowledge of empathy' based on physicality and discusses the essence of communication."
