your phone is a super computer, using it to watch and scroll is repeating the past in a small minded way, like projecting a newspaper onto a roll of toilet paper - stop pulling on the roll to see the next square. get off the toilet. read a book and instead use the phone to manipulate basic molecular shapes. it’s a mobile test tube. play with light. do some burnings. if you are especially curious about yourself start screen recording everything, play it back 4x speed. edit that! It’s all *light* baby!! get acquainted with the unconscious + make sure you keep doing your laundry

For example, if you play games(crosswords?) on your phone u could buy a cheap crossword book. Also imo not all screens are bad- like i'm assuming u are using a screen to access pi.fyi. maybe think of them like that; watching a peice of art(film/tv) done thru screen?screens can be an access to the beauty of the world so dwindle ur use to that and not doomscrolling. maybe go a bit more analog try dvds cds, perhaps interacting differently with tech is ur breakthrough. moreso, books thinking and going on walks and ANY sport (i reccomend badminton(not tennis)) cycling and going to the library. and trust it will all come to together, soon.

if you cant get yourself to put your phone away quite yet, just get yourself to look at the room behind your phone, or the real world, as a constant practice. its like when the screen used to go black between eisodes of netflix loading. a reality check. it feels good, i promise. foreground the bavkground, even for a moment. be kind to yourself

have been toying of the idea of switching to a dumb phone for a while but decided i may as well start by seeing what i can do with this phone first. deleted all unnecessary/time-wasting apps, adjusted settings to make phone less stimulating, and while i was at it i redesigned my homescreen to reduce clutter and fit the old tech vibe i’m manifesting for myself!!! was a tedious process but i’m happy with the results, using my phone already feels less overwhelming overall :) (btw if anyone is interested in lobotomizing their phone this is the guide i followed)

if you’re in the office 4HL you probably have regular access to a colour laser printer and a comb binder. take an hour to rummage in the copy room, go off-screen and make any book you want on company dime. print full colour copies of medieval treatise. learning the process is fun, also rite-like. I presented Breathing: Chaos and Poetry by Franco Berardi to my boyfriend (his request) who pointed out the pages opened back to front

it’s a looping machine and DAW, incredible app. I found a bunch of hacked ariana grande studio vocal takes on the Russian facebook ВКонтакте another great app - (you can find anything). while fleshing out the melody for a song Ariana sings only tones and vowels- no lyrics. great for looping divine harmonic gregorian chants
