I found myself caught in the snare of the internet earlier this year. Attention is the new currency and there are no rules in the age of the World Wide Web. The lines in the sand have been drawn, making us more tribal, disconnected, and constantly sold something. We pledge ourselves to the content factory as a way to keep in touch with our high school friends (at best) or in hopes of our fifteen minutes of fame (at worst). The internet and all its noise had a chokehold on me. I needed freedom. Enter Art. Art has become a pallet cleanser in this clunky, busy world, and it has the power to reset our minds and hearts. Before we get started, let’s set the terms.
