‘A Colossal Waste of Time’ is a project about a semi-fictional workplace. The employees who work there are creative with their time in ways not always for the benefit of productivity. Skiving off, motivated by boredom or the urge to get away from the screen, employees resort to playing pranks on each other, building structures, doodling, planking, looking for holidays or idly balancing a sheet of paper on its end. Why? The requirements of the working world are often at odds with what we need to do physically and mentally, so these small acts of resistance are a necessary response to workplace parameters.
