The world feels like it’s been spinning faster and faster. Time has become our most scarce currency, and productivity the most cherished prize.
And yet, something else has been shifting. Amidst the abundance of digital content, many of us are burnt out, overstimulated, and plain tired. Our generation is craving slower, easier spaces to exist in — taking the time to both be present, but also looking back and revisiting physical, analogue forms of media — where we first found ourselves; first on record.
