Ecological Strangers is an 'anti-productivity' chrome extension designed to break users free from the constant cycle of productivity. This unique extension blocks out the user's browser every hour and presents them with pop-ads and soundscapes featuring local, nameless natural species.

The intention behind Ecological Strangers is to capture the user's attention and highlight our profound ignorance of nature. By juxtaposing seemingly unrelated subjects - sex workers and natural species - the extension encourages users to reflect on the fact that both are often ignored and yet depend on our attention for survival.

The ultimate goal of Ecological Strangers is to provoke speculation about an alternative scenario. What if we collectively resist the profit-driven technology landscape and instead direct our attention towards nature? Would downtime still be seen as a missed opportunity? With this extension, users are invited to consider the potential benefits of reconnecting with the natural world.
