Playing Video Games When the Power is Out

I haven’t always been a fan of video games.   I’m a fan of getting outside, enjoying fresh air, exploring tide pools, walking on a trail or in the park.  I love cooking, baking and crafting.   It just never occurred to me that adding more hours in front of a screen could be a path to joy.

Over the years, in over the shoulder mode, I’ve loved watching friends of all ages engage — with a full on passion and joy, and my latest HuffPo post describes one such moment.

I coined the phrases continuous partial attention, email apnea, and screen apnea. I write about attention and our relationship to technology.
