Data driven

Living a data driven existence. Is that the future?

Apple watch. Sleep tracker. habit track. track your runs. track heart rate. calories. shit frequency.

12.26.25 A data driven reality exposes the innate complexities of existence. Every step we take. every thought, journaled. every breath, every motion, some executed with greater intent some, instictively. hundreds of thousands of decisions and actions/movements taking place each day.

i would argue that these behaviors are data-driven as well: journalling- collection of thoughts sketchbooks- collection of artistic ideas playlists- collection of musical tastes

instead of collectors of nuts or random shiny shit like raccoons we are collectors of ideas passions pursuits. depending on how you choose to see it, our behaviors are either not very far evolved from squirrels, or just a natural, higher dimensionsed, progression of a squirrel’s school of thought. we take pride in collecting, there is an innate fulfillment in that.
