The Cult of Productivity: A Glimpse into Our Collective Obsession Ian Bogost's new book, The Small Stuff , offers a critique of modern society's relentless pursuit of productivity.
On its surface, the book appears to be a gentle nudge towards appreciating mundane daily life. However, upon closer inspection, it reveals a more profound critique of our obsession with efficiency.
Bogost argues that technology has created an environment where we're constantly distracted by the prospect of achieving more.
