Screen Time
How much of your day is spent on screens versus in the real world.
Valerie Sizemore and the Search for What's Still Human
Screen Time measures how much of your day runs through a screen versus direct contact with the physical world. Valerie Sizemore made a deliberate choice to reduce screen engagement and shift toward hands-on, material-based activity — calligraphy, wood carving, stone knapping. They describe thinking more intentionally about computer use overall and trying to get more connected to the real world. This wasn't accidental drift; it was a conscious recalibration of how much of their life they wanted mediated by a screen.
