Body & Mind

Description

Blue light is the crystalline poison showered from our smartphones and PC screens, a tiny demon tearing at humanity’s sleep rhythm night after night. It promises to protect our eyes yet wields the spoils of eye strain as a weapon to lure us into its nocturnal realm of disruption. Scientists glare at its short wavelengths, marketers peddle blocking filters, yet no complete escape route is ever provided. Even with eyes closed, its cerulean afterimage flits at the edge of consciousness, persistently betraying the serenity of rest.
