Thoughts of interest at the moment:
Basically all kinds of phenomena that have arisen due to how we live our lives. How trends affect the human mind and how different structures of consumption come into play. How the consequences of modern man's relationship to gadgets can look like. How we consume time. Anthropocene. Finding substance in the idea of living in a suggestive "now".
