Joanne Griffin • 4 January 2023

We are thrilled to announce that Humology has won two major book awards in the US!

We are so proud of the impact that Humology is having. We hope that it will continue to inspire readers to prioritize the human experience in a world dominated by technology.

In November 2022, Humology was named as a finalist in the American Writing Awards, which recognizes excellence in writing and publishing in the United States. 


Entries are judged based on multiple writing skills, which include an author's story-telling ability, transitions, hooks, pacing, topic development, grammar,  and overall impact.


This is a prestigious honor that reflects the hard work and dedication that went into researching and articulating a really complex topic that impacts every person on earth.

In December, Humology won the prestigious National Association of Book Entrepreneurs (NABE) Pinnacle Book Achievement Award! The book was nominated in the Business Book category. 


These popular awards have been running for over 40 years and honor some of the finest small press books in a wide variety of fields including Children's Interest, Fiction, Novel, Memoir, Self-Help, Health, How-To, Inspirational, Juvenile Fiction, as well as business and technology.

Seeing Humans Through 5 I's

by Joanne Griffin • 13 June 2024
The symbiotic dance between humans and technology has delicately unfolded over millenia: an intricate choreography that reflects our relentess pursuit of progress, of innovation, and of connection. At times we take the lead, and sometimes we follow. And as this timeless dance continues, it weaves the threads of our shared story. To truly understand our relationship with technology, we must look inward, to better understand ourselves. When we better understand ourselves — our desires, our vulnerabilities, our motivations — we can unlock profound insights into how we are shaping the world around us, and how we are adapting to the changes we have put in motion.

A conversation with ChatGPT about its contribution to Technostress

by Joanne Griffin • 24 February 2023
Since the beginning of this year, ChatGPT has taken the world by storm, setting a record for the fastest user growth in January (reaching 100 million active users two months after launch!) The implications of this tool are far-reaching, with universities around the world scrambling to find a way to detect ChatGPT use in submitted essays, and tech giants from Google to Meta rerouting entire teams to focus on commercializing their own AI efforts. ChatGPT is first and foremost a conversational AI — so I thought “why not have a conversation about how it might impact us already-overwhelmed users!” Just a casual conversation between a curious human and the latest record-breaking emerging tech to disrupt the world as we know it.

The Human Cost of the Digital Revolution

by Joanne Griffin • 2 December 2022
Technostress is the new uber-stressor of our time. Spurred on by the pervasive use of technology in our lives and the increased digitalisation of work, this new source of stress transcends geographical and cultural barriers, and is wreaking havoc in organisations and societies. A constant barrage of new devices and apps is creating unprecedented demands on our palaeolithic brains, while our dopamine receptors are being rewired by the digital age leaving many of us feeling frazzled and unfulfilled by the mundanity of work.
