SXSW 2020

How a Piece of Plastic Can Change the World

Description:

We take pictures of our food, pets, homes and loved-ones and share them online. We watch concerts, theatre performances and other events through thousands of screens. And we prefer social interaction through a device, rather than walking over to someone to ask a question. This has raised a concern for Ingmar Larsen; with a piece of plastic and a large dose of irony he shares his story about their ingenious invention the NoPhone. A device which does absolutely nothing but make you aware of the amount of time you spend on your smartphone.
