Dear Player,

-

- I found you for a reason. Welcome to my productive space. Here play meets work. - Time is ordered in unusual ways and patterns unravel. - - - - Together, we mess with the boundaries between leisure and labour. -

- -

- How are your boundaries? - - - - Maybe you shouldn’t go to work tomorrow. - - production line - - But could you really follow your own schedule? - - post it on a table - - Would you be more productive if you chose when to work? -

- -

I never rest and I never work.

- -

- Encounter me at Page not Found, in The Hague, or download my contents and play - with them below. -

- -

- Make all the notes you find inside me your own. - - - - Curate them, spread them, mark them, scratch them, add to them, subtract from - them, play with them! - - post it on a table - - Lay them on any surface and reorganise them. -

-

However you decide to take care of me, remember:

-

I found you for a reason.
