"Technologies ... sheer quantity of information we must now manage often exceeds our cognitive capacity. As a result, the hyper-abundance of information in today’s world-seen as a boon by many-often steals from us the quiet moments we need for contemplation.
It may actually reduce our ability to create new and useful ideas."
(Homer-Dixon, 2001, p.319)Homer-Dixon, T. (2001). The ingenuity gap: Can we solve the problems of the future? Vintage Canada: Alfred A. Knopf.
We want to proof that technology does not hamper one from enjoying moments of comtemplation. On the contrary, it allows people to synergise more ideas together- more than just an item bank or journal.
