The Message Sent, The Message Received
By Kika Waialae
Categories: Society & Culture, Documentary
What happens when the words we speak aren't the message another person receives? In this nine-chapter narrated conversation, Kika Waiʻalae and VEX explore the complicated art of human communication—how intentions become words, how those words are interpreted, and why misunderstandings can change relationships. Through personal stories, reflection, humor, and conversations between a man and artificial intelligence, The Message Sent, The Message Received examines the distance between what we mean and what others hear. Part of Conversations Across a Lifetime.
