And now let's see how many people will read about 250,000 people watching a man do nothing.
I don't mean the TV show Seinfeld. Although it claimed to be show about nothing, many things did indeed happen.
In this case I am referring to the fact that one quester of a million people have chosen to, in the age of the attention economy,spend that value commodity on watching a man sit by a fire and do nothing.
The man, Jeff Kaplan, is the head designer of the popular video game Overwatch.
he did not trick anyone. He was very upfront that he would be doing nothing in the video. Even though he promised to do nothing, he did actually provide some thrills by:
- Breathing
- Blinking
- Eating cookies
- Answering the phone
- Getting hit with a boom microphone
Wow!
Technically this is a still image. But since he doesn't do anything, does it really even matter? source
If you would like to watch someone do nothing for 10 hours, I have included a link to the video below (there was no way I was going to embed that).
Or you could always just go and find a teenager when you tell them its time to clean up. they love doing nothing then.
