Event Description

As we return from summer vacation to the regular work week, we experience the stresses of office life: we take in and act on large amounts of information; while sitting at our desks; staring into screens, or even running from one patient to another. Many of us work with minimal break time or inadequate rest as we fight burnout and exhaustion. A growing body of research has demonstrated that our current sedentary work culture literally kills- according to a 2010 study, it increases men’s chances of early death by 18% and women’s chance by 37%.

As a response to this growing crisis, Melissa Painter’s female-founded company Breakthru launched an immersive, interactive, movement-based app: Breakthru: Movement Microbreaks for the Modern Workday that provides users with guided 2-minute breaks to boost mental and physical health for individuals and team - and is backed by none other than Microsoft.

WE LIVE WITHIN AN UNSTABLE LANDSCAPE

This is a social networking website connecting people concerned about innovation and experimentation on art, dance, embodiment, cognition, science, networks, post-humanism, media and the unstable landscape of contemporary culture and life.

We are in a transitional phase and refocusing the network with a broader interdisciplinary framework. It will reflect a contemporary community interacting and embedded unstablelandscape.

This network is maintained and administrated by Marlon Barrios Solano as an independent art/curatorial/social innovation project.
