Unplugged is being run by Dr Roman Gerodimos, a lecturer in Communication and Journalism at Bournemouth University. The experiment is now over but he doesn't yet know the full findings. However, during the experiment, Dr Gerodimos said there were already signs of how much the exercise affected volunteers. He said: “They're reporting withdrawal symptoms(症状), overeating, feeling nervous, isolated and disconnected.” During their 24hour painful experience, three of the experiment's guinea pigs had to endure one intrusion(侵扰) from the media: a BBC reporter plus cameraman who followed them around for the day. They were asked to write down 100 lines about their day offline, but of course, they all waited until the next day when they had access to their laptops. Elliot Day wrote: “Today, my whole morning routine was_thrown_up_into_the_air. Despite being aware of the social importance of the media, I was surprised by how empty my life felt without the radio or newspapers.” From Caroline Scott, we read:“I didn't expect it, but being prevented from the media for 24 hours resulted in my daytoday activities becoming so much harder to carry out than usual...I didn't break out in a cold sweat like our lecturer expected us all to, but it's not something I would like to do again!” And Charlotte Gay wrote: “I have to say the most difficult item for me to be without has been my mobile; not only is it a social tool, it's my main access point of communication.”
