I think most people miss the point. It's not about 'unplugging' it's about regaining balance. You don't have to unplug completely, forever! We just need to not forget about slow-time engagements and interactions. We are living in an ever-increasing fast-paced, fast-time engagement society; we need to re-introduce slow-time, contemplative practices into our lives.
Good video BUT the connection between information overload and the US deficit is not explained. How do you make that conclusion? what are the facts or evidence? I'm interested, that's why I'd like to know. Thank you.
Definitely. People spend so much time on sites like Facebook, Tumblr, and even RUclips watching/reading really random and stupid things. It's not an entirely bad thing that they do, but I feel like we need cut back on this type of "entertainment" and enjoy more physical entertainment (playing outside, making music and art, interacting with people face to face rather than texting them when they are right beside you). If we're going to use the internet, most of it should b relevant stuff like this
Hey there, thank you for this video ! THE POWER OF THE INTERNET. this video is so much more relevant now ! Especially with the upcoming rise of 5G Technology. We are all plugged in . scary.
Is there a way to see where you found your research and statistics? Specifically, I'd like to see how IOS and multi-tasking led to tanking in the economy.
I am currently doing a masters thesis on this very topic and applied to mobile device users groups in co locative online environments more specifically augmented reality based mobile devices :)
Here is a perspective if you aren't done with it... Context + Content = Concept...I am plugged in with my mobile and pc probably 8 hours each day...30 days a month equaling 240 hours each month. I am not overloaded because I use the equation above. Happy Surfing :-)
I liked the video but... Don't you think there was just too much information for a person to take in in such a short period of time? My brain feels overloaded now. Got to catch some air
amazing video XD but i think its also got something to do with demand of people and desire to do something a little more interesting rather than information over lode :/
Awesome clip I love the way it has been put together a lot of work would have been put into this I would give it a HD for sure.. but .. She said we only remember 10% of what we read at the start .. then said we need to read more books?.. lo siento pero no entiendo.
9 years later this video is even more relevant.

I think what she meant was to unplug for some hours and enjoy other stuff.
'Regaining balance' is a joke

Exactly. Without even trying to elucidate this, it is just casually stated as a fact.

This video is the "from the book" example of information overload. I dont remember single information min after watching the video.
Beautiful video
Very cool & creative animations about a topic that's really relevant. Information overload is crazy these days
This is inspiring. Thank you for this beautiful clip. It's time to unplug.
Good video. Any chance you could edit the automatic closed captions so they are more accurate? Thanks.
03:04 No, not even books! That's more info, we need to get AWAY from overload now & then.
I agree with you!
Good job guys!
Very nice! Is there any way to get the reference for "Americans spend 180 days a year consuming information" ?

Ironic
Love this video - great job!
Nice video!

Great video. Would you mind if I used it in a Grad school assignment on information overload?
Thanks!
U should do that so I can find u in real life Instead of us communicating like we're on different planets.
lol what a comment made my day
love it, VERY WELL DONE

Awesome concept.. loved it!

i like the part when they showed the window

beautiful
Did you green screen this, or just roto her out manually for the whole vid?
Really nice idea.
Agree!
Too much info for the baby. Once she gets old enough the info can't come fast enough.
