Modern interfaces are built to be smooth and easy to use. They are fine-tuned for consumption and grabbing attention. What if by introducing little disturbances via interfaces, one could help people gain and maintain more consciousness while using digital tools.



What if, by creating decentralizing interfaces one could help breaking the circle of mindless consumption.

**Resting is doing**

You don't need to be busy. You don't need to justify your existence in terms of productivity. Rest is an essential part of survival. An essential part of us. An essential part of being the animals we are. When a dog lies in the sun I imagine it does it without guilt, because as far as I can tell dogs seem more in tune with their own needs. As I grow older, I think that resting might actually be the main point of life. To sit down passively, inside or outside, and merely absorb things - the tick of a clock, a cloud passing by, the distant hum of traffic, a bird singing - can feel like an end in itself. It can actually feel and be more meaningful than a lot of the stuff we are conditioned to see as productive. Just as we need pauses between notes for music to sound good, and just as we need punctuation in a sentence for it to be coherent, we should see rest and reflection and passivity and even sitting on the sofa - as an intrinsic and essential part of life that is needed for the whole to make sense.
