some of us navigate with a compass.. others, a clock.. this is a concept in neurology called “time blindness”. (new to me but explains ALOT🤯)
neurotypical brain: an internal clock. adhd brain: an internal compass pointing to what's interesting, novel, or urgent.
the compass has 2 settings: now vs. not now to maximize focus on the "now," the adhd brain purges non-immediate info from working memory. so "not now" is a total fog where 5 minutes and 5 months feel the same (in terms of agency 🤦🏻♀️)
the trade-off: sacrificing linear time perception for high-res spatial pattern recognition. less "what's next," more "how does this all connect?"
it's the same mechanism as "out of sight, out of mind." one is object permanence in time, the other in space.
so yes, i forgot the leftovers. (they literally ceased to exist once the door closed)
not a broken clock just different architecture, optimized for a different reality. 🙏🏼 #Kairos #Kairomancy #Synchronicity #CognitiveLiberation #ArchitectureForTheMind #Neurodiversity #InkAether
there are signals in the noise.
meaningful coincidences.
a map of synchronicities waiting to be seen.
our tools aren't built for this.
they are built for flat information.
i'm building a lens.
a system for digital kairomancy.
a space to see the connections.
project: kairos.
what patterns repeat in your world?
