Human beings often dream to be something else. I remember wanting to be a flying swallow, or a willow tree by the pond whenever I see them.

Oftentimes, people find themselves stuck in social situations against their will, or trapped by an overload of information or by a scheming and pervasive consumerism. Every time this happens to me, I wish to disappear into a bubble-like barrier, so that I have a quiet moment and be alone with myself.

That is why I am creating an online publication of a barrier manual for anyone that might have the same need as I do. Using the most accessible materials in your current setting, this barrier manual helps you create a disguise - a barrier that empowers people to choose whether or not they will participate in their current living or social situation.

This barrier is not an escapism for an inability to face reality. It is a tangible headspace that can be recreated anywhere with the instruction of the barrier manual. It provides a temporary shelter for mental tranquility and self-introspection.
