There's a New Little Guy at the Info Desk
A few years ago, I brought treadmill desks to Createscape because I'd been trying one out myself and loved it. Movement while you work just made sense for me, and I wanted to share that with the community. And more recently I’ve been hooked on another thing that I want to share. We now have a Brick at the Info Desk, free for any member to use.
Brick is a small gray NFC device that pairs with a free app on your phone. You tap your phone to it, and your distracting apps disappear… social media, doom scrolling, all of it, until you physically walk back and tap again. That's the trick: the key lives somewhere else, so getting your apps back requires an actual decision instead of a reflex.
It's great if you have ADHD and need external structure to stay on task, and it's equally great if you're just someone who picks up their phone out of habit and loses fifteen minutes without meaning to. Either way, Brick helps a lot.
Download the free Brick app, set up which apps to block (or which to keep — your call), and tap the block at the Info Desk to start a session. No subscription, no cost to you. Just an extra little member perk at Createscape you can try out.
Give it a try on your next visit!
See you in the space,
Keller
