“61% of people admit to being addicted to the internet and their digital devices.
50% of people prefer communicating digitally rather than in person.
1/3 of people would rather clean their toilets than their inbox.
60% of people say traditional vacation doesn't relieve stress.
High social media use can trigger an increase in loneliness, jealousy and fear.“

Digital Detox with Yannick Val Gesto and Leon Sadler
On the occasion of the fifth Internetstadl we renounce digital devices completely in order to reset and relax our mental machines. By unplugging all digital and social connections we can focus on priorities, like the perception of human social interaction and of our natural self.
During the course of the evening we will provide a „lying meditation introduction“ to digital detox and distribute the digital detox guidebook „Warrior Pose“, implemented by Yannik Val Gesto and Leon Sadler, which presents a collection of collaborative free spirited works that are accompanied by a series of tips on how to achieve happies and inner peace...To unite the body, mind and soul a smooth yoga lesson consisting of various breathing techniques, yoga postures and meditation will be conducted by Katharina Schmitt afterwards.
Procedure:
7pm: Outset
7.15pm: Introduction into digital detox
7.45pm: Short break
8pm: Yoga lesson
9.30pm: Digital detox compilation
10pm: Open end
The entrance costs 4 Euro per person. There's limited space, so buy your ticket at the cash desk now, or reserve tickets by emailing: ts@nrw-forum.de
The series Internetstadl is curated by Alain Bieber, artistic director of the NRW-Forum Düsseldorf, and the net artists Florian Kuhlmann and Thomas Artur Spallek.
