10 things to live without

or Simplify your life

and don’t die trying

Mobiles

#1

Who said I should be 100% available?

Who said I am SO important?

Why should I be doing something else while moving?

Let me just move from one place to another

Let me enjoy my mobility

Let me finish my trip

Let me be uninterrupted

If I had 500 minutes in a cellphone plan That means I would take 500 minutes from somebody else

What I have to say…

can wait.

Until we meet again

I promise not to call you because you may be:

I promise not to call you because you may be:1 – Thinking

I promise not to call you because you may be:1 – Thinking 2 – Creating

I promise not to call you because you may be:1 – Thinking 2 – Creating 3 – Resting

How can I interrupt you?

Or you could be:1 – With someone

Or you could be:1 – With someone2 – With everyone

Or you could be:1 – With someone2 – With everyone3 – With no one

Again…

How can I interrupt you?

No minutes?No signal?No battery?

No minutes?No signal?No battery?

No problem!

Smart Stuff

#2

Anything with a display is unnecessarily complex

An on/off button should be enough in any appliance.

Something with a user manual is usually too much featured and expensive.

Geolocators?

No thanks…

I just want to get lost

Automobile

#3

To move a load of 90 kilograms (one adult)…

You need to move an object of 1000 to 2000 kg (one car)

It is a waste of energy and valuable resources

Imagine you had to push 20 times your own weight to go from point A to point B

There are better solutions.

Why not just…

Walk

Skate

Ride a Bike

Motorcycle? No thanks.

200 kilograms to carry your 90 kilograms

It is still a circus show

Use public transportation

Cab

Bus

Rickshaw

Driving a car is a JOB

It requires skills, concentration,decision making,responsibility,common sense.

Transporting people and goods is a high responsibility JOB

Leave this to professionals

Watch

#4

What time is it?

11:58:17 am

or noon

or lunch time

Your body and your senses can tell the time

Yes, trains and planes leave at an exact time.

But you are asked to arrive at the airport 2 or 3 hours in advance.

$1 or$10.000watches just do the same

They give you an information that is available everywhere

You will never offend your friends by looking at your watch in the middle of a conversation.

News

#5

There is nothing I really NEED to know right now

I prefer to read history than news.

I prefer to read history than news.

Even if it’s last week’s history.

Information is there.

I can grasp it anytime

Let me enjoy my fresh ignorance of events.

Let other people enjoy themselves telling you their version of current events.

Be the one who doesn’t know.

Be the one who doesn’t know.

Be the one who listens.

Be the one who doesn’t know.

Be the one who listens.

Be popular.

Beauty

#6

Let’s go back to ugliness

We, the ugly,

We, the ugly, are the majority.

Humanity’s pursuit of beauty

Humanity’s pursuit of beauty is expensive and futile

Be natural,

Be natural, be old,

Be natural, be old, be unfitted,

Be natural, be old, be unfitted, be imperfect,

Be natural, be old, be unfitted, be imperfect, be asymetric,

Be natural, be old, be unfitted, be imperfect, be asymetric, be bald,

Be natural, be old, be unfitted, be imperfect, be asymetric, be bald, be hairy…

Be you…

Live!

Live!

Age!

Live!

Age!

Die!

Live!

Age!

Die!

Simple!

Faith

Let me die

Let me die with my ignorance.

I may be happy

I may be happy without

I may be happy without your source

If you don’t tell me

If you don’t tell me your beliefs

If you don’t tell me your beliefs I promise…

If you don’t tell me your beliefs I promise… I won’t tell you mine.

Just one final request:

Just one final request:Let
