💨 Abstract

A viral photo of a woman in San Francisco holding a crystal-clear phone sparked confusion. The device, dubbed the "methaphone," is an acrylic artifact designed to address the paradox of technology disconnecting users despite its intended purpose of connection. The woman, Cat, explained it as a response to the collective tension caused by devices. While some saw it as a solution to technology addiction, others criticized it as absurd, arguing that addiction stems from apps, not the physical device.
