Bored at work

Project view Bored at work
Bored at work, 2017

Summary

Bored at work features behaviors that have developed in recent years in the context of alienated office postures, such as pen spinning, the practice of making a pen rotate between one’s fingers. These new practices symbolize an act of resistance to that alienation, a revalorization of the body in the face of lethargic ergonomics. They have even given rise to tournaments in pen spinning, spinning chair, which consists in making a chair rotate as many times as possible, and finger drumming, or playing drums with one’s fingers.
