The publication BUSYNESS | A momentary lapse of reason addresses the evident necessity of productivity for each individual in order to be considered a valuable part of society.

The topic of compulsory efficiency is examined illustratively and through lyrical texts. The subtitle A momentary lapse of reason alludes to the price we pay in order to call ourselves busy and thereby insist on our justification to exist within the aforementioned structure.
