There will be plenty of time for manifesto-style apologia.  For now, suffice it to say that we live in a digibonkerz world, where complete withdrawal from digital media is impossible, and digital detoxes, while admirable and advisable, will always fade under a daily assault of device-driven madness.

Thus a question – how can we learn to live with and use digital technology … not just mindfully, which is too weak of a buzzword … but in a spirit of utter detachment?

I have some ideas.
