A Social Media experiment.

Social media, like television, or smart phones, is a tool for communication. Too often, it’s used for speed, or hype, or selling things we don’t need that are not responsibly produced and that end up in our landfills, and bloodstreams. But social media can be used for mindfulness, too. Let’s try it.

Today: make art! I’m participating in my hometown’s Open Studios, which connects artists and community. Yesterday I biked around with one friend and my dog, Red, and soon we had a bike gang of 8 and visited art at farms and homes and workshops and I even got to make a hand under the guidance of sculptor Caroline Douglas, in only five minutes flat. My quickie hand is bottom left.Followthen, should we switch our phones off of airplane mode. [For photo, follow @waylonlewis on Instagram]

Let’s transform social media into a tool for wakefulness, benefit, and love!
