June 2023 - Goodbye Free Time
Design notes from the artist: Chris Mackey
Years ago, in my youth, I would while away my days in search of new entertainments, things to do to fill up my days and amuse myself. I actually spent afternoons swinging in a hammock complaining of being bored and having "nothing to do". I put in extra time at work and found occasional distractions, but nothing really satisfied for long. Then, one day, I was introduced to geocaching...
Goodbye "free time", hello missions, challenges, new friendships and incredible experiences. The one thing no one told me about was that my calendar would be perpetually full. I'd have offers from people all over the world to go hike, play, explore and discover new places and new experiences. I'd meet coin collectors from everywhere on the globe willing and eager to meet new people , make new trades and share wild stories. I'd have a permanently full schedule that never seems to get empty.
Geocaching is the cure for the common plague of boredom and mind numbing social media wastelands. Every spare minute is now an opportunity for fun, new experiences and new challenges. Some are entertaining, some fullfilling, some are even terrifying and push your boundries to grow and achieve new goals.
This months coin marks a turning point in time. The doc has the cure for your plague of boredom and says time is short! Do more. Celebrate your precious minutes on this planet. Man has been marking how quickly time passes since the beginning and with good reason. You can't get it back. It's the one currency that can't be bargained for. Maybe some of us have forgotten, but there's no such thing as "free time"... it's priceless. It's your opportunity to do more, live more and explore your world!
