As human beings, we belong to various social networks. Relationships with others are a fundamental human need, but they can also place constraints on us or even make us vulnerable. Based on our interests, experiences, feelings or beliefs, we enter into connections with others or distance ourselves from them. Digital media influence who we come in contact with and how we communicate with one another. How do an individual’s position and behaviour change depending on their environment? How do direct encounters differ from virtual connections?
