flow experience
A flow experience is the illusion where the self goes off the grid, and only time drifts by in silent approval. It is a hybrid of accomplishment and delusion, a soundproof barrier rejecting all external distractions. Marketed as a gift of productivity, it comes bundled with a subtle loss of humanity. Occasionally masquerading as a spark of creativity, it masks boredom with euphoria, while chaining you to a fresh wave of busyness.
