[Application] Help me with this sentence in English for my Statement of Purpose?

[rokyslash]

First of all, I am not a native english speaker and am new to this forum, so please redirect me to the correct page if I have posted this in the wrong place.

I am trying to write my Statement of Purpose for my Grad School and this is the sentence that I want help with.

"Being born into an era of technological revolution and electronic ___________ I was extremely fascinated by the electronic appliances right from my childhood."

So what should I fill in that blank? Something along the lines of revolution/industry. and also is this sentence right? I mean should there be a "the" before electronic appliances or not?

Thanks.
