Pop-Up Exhibit

About the exhibit 

​

This exhibit provides a space for people of all ages to reflect on our cell phone usage and overall screen time through the medium of art.

People will enter the exhibit and learn the staggering statistics of phone usage over a person’s lifespan, the science of phones on a chemical and behavioral level, comics of phone misuse and overuse, experience the photo-taking impairment effect, understand the collective action problem, opportunity cost, consequences of overuse, and more.

Toward the end of the exhibit, people have the opportunity to explore their own values and find hope in our future through suggestions on how to combat this addiction. There is a pledge and books available for purchase to educate and ultimately move our society in a better direction.
