TECHNOLOGY

In each of the texts, technology plays a large role in the lives and environments of each of the texts characters. Despite this, each of the authors presents analogous perceptions of the role that this technology plays, or will play, in a totalitarian and industrialized civilization. Lang sees technology as becoming independent of their creators, hence becoming another employee for the upper-class to hire, and Orwell contrasts this in his perspective of technology being tools for the execution of total control.
