Changing Perspective

This is an investigation into the breaking of habits, specifically on how to stop people from doing the negative things they like doing. By looking into various forms of graphic communication in relation to psychology, patterns, repetition, and conditioning, I will attempt to generate solutions to alter people's environmentally inefficient behaviors to more positive ones.

- Automatic shutdown after 20 min no use ("Of the $250 billion spent every year on powering computers worldwide, only about 15 percent is spent computing; the rest is wasted idling."- World Changing)
- Makes beeping noise like cell phone in 10 min cycles of no use
