Green button. Red button. Go or stop. Digital. 1 or 0. On or off.  All or nothing.

We associate these ideas and images with machines. Creations of industry and technology. We strive and reach to create the next, more refined, higher quality machine that's one step closer to perfection. Everywhere we look there's new technology.  Experimental machines and devices conceived in laboratories and constructed in Chinese factories. We turn it on, life gets better. When we don't need it any more, we turn it off.

What about one of the oldest pieces of technology in the world. Technology that predates carbon fiber, plastic polymers, steel, iron and even bronze tools. What happens when we apply green button/red button thinking to the human body, one of the most advanced, complex, powerful, reliable and beautiful machines the world has ever known? Not on, a little. Not off on a progressive gentle little bunny slope cool down.

 On and GO!

On and go until the immediate power supply, the fuel tank is pumped dry. Have you ever trained your body to think like your laptop? Task. Complete task. NOW. Task completed. Stop. It's about putting all of our energy and strength into one singular job. No multitasking thinking about the office, kid's soccer practice, your TPS report and walking the dog all at one time. Singular vision. Imagine taking the energy you exert in one hour on a multitude of static and focusing it one one thing, one job, one task to be accomplished as fast and efficiently as possible. What are the potential heights you could reach? What is the true potential of your machine?

Show up Thursday at 8pm and find out.
