ARTIFACTS FOR A TRANSIENT WORLD

transient/world

We design artifacts that function within impermanence. Tools, texts, and systems for changing states of attention, time, and focus.

“The only thing permanent is transience.”

Foundation

Working with transience

अनित्य

Impermanence

Anitya

Everything that arises will pass away. Attention shifts. Circumstances change. Phases begin and end.

वैराग्य

Non-attachment

Vairāgya

Freedom does not come from acquiring more, but from loosening our grip on what cannot be held.

साक्षी

Witness

Sākṣī

Beneath all change is the capacity to observe — to register time passing without being consumed by it.

App

Presence

Presence is a meditation timer designed for transient attention.

It measures time without instruction, reward, or gamification.
No streaks. No progress tracking. No narrative of improvement.

Presence is not a practice in itself.
It is an instrument for practices that already exist.

Use it. Stop using it. Return when needed.
