In a world that never stops talking, your mind has become the marketplace—and your attention is the currency. Empty the Feed is a clear-eyed, uncompromising guide to reclaiming mental sovereignty in the age of infinite scroll.

From the quiet landscapes where human cognition evolved to the high-velocity churn of today’s digital feeds, this book traces the hidden history of how technology reshaped the rhythms of thought. You’ll see how platforms weaponize engagement, why your brain’s ancient wiring struggles against algorithmic compulsion, and what it truly costs—psychologically, socially, and culturally—when every moment is mediated by a screen.

Drawing on anthropology, neuroscience, and cultural analysis, Empty the Feed dismantles the myths that keep us tethered: the illusion of multitasking, the lure of infinite knowledge, and the false promise of online participation. It exposes the mechanics of algorithmic manipulation, the industrialization of outrage, and the quiet colonization of your mental space by external agendas.

But this is not a call to nostalgia or retreat. It’s a blueprint for life after the feed—designing personal attention environments, rebuilding sensory clarity, restoring narrative time, and forging cultures that resist the economics of distraction. With practical strategies for both individuals and communities, this book shows how to shift from compulsive consumption to deliberate engagement.

If you’ve ever felt the low-grade exhaustion of constant connectivity, if you’ve sensed your thoughts fraying into fragments, if you know the feed is shaping you more than you are shaping it—this is your map out.

Step away from the noise. Reclaim your mind. Discover the long quiet.
