The call of the tactile
Nobody is crapping on tech, only looking for a wider range of experiences
There is no shortage of advice and training on how to increase the number of digital and virtual experiences and tools in our lives. And, believe me, I enjoy technology and enjoy learning new ways to put it to work for me (remembering, as ever, technology is a great servant but a shitty master).
But, in what ways do you crave more tactile, tangible and sensory experiences in your life? Perhaps not instead of, but in addition to digital experiences? Or, maybe it does feel either/or to you, which is also fine.
On that note, I have written before about the idea of living more seasonally, which I love and keep trying to do more and more, and about things which might seem old fashioned but that bring great joy (I see you, beloved fountain pens). Writw into ideas like that today and see what pulls at your heart.
Let’s write.
