I recently read How to Do Nothing: Resisting the Attention Economy by Jenny Odell. In it she advocates we "wrest our focus from the attention economy and replant it in the public, physical realm". Chapter 4 in particular covers being outdoors, in physical public spaces.

The message I took from Jenny's book seemed more about rebuilding human relationships. My tagline in Digital Vegan was "take back tech" because I see technology as complementing and facilitating human relations. Currently it's designed to do the opposite, to corrode the interpersonal and make us more insular and selfish.

Just read her blog post. The post in fantastic, but the book was long-winded and pretentious. I couldn't power through it.
