an experimental project to explore new forms of computing, operating from under a plum tree in Berkeley, California: A brand new computer interface and aesthetic, plucked from a future of sustainable abundance. Take a step into our dream,
in Whisper World, energy-draining video displays (screens) are replaced with 0-energy physical displays (books, scrapbooks), and instead of proprietary controllers or computer mice, we play games and do computer-assisted design with wooden wands, carved into dozens of beautiful patterns at your local farmer's market

in Whisper World, there are no phones that engage our attention with flashing screens and sound effects, but we have instead cozy, quiet, low-tech computers designed to dis-engage, using ancient display technologies (print, books) to keep us living in the present

in Whisper World, screens & smartphones can only be found in history museums, and technology is tucked away in books, trinkets, and pleasant little cozy things
