Attention is often treated as a tool for solving problems.
But what if it also has the power to sustain them?
In What We Attend To, Kas Philippens
explores how attention functions as a force that shapes not only what we see,
but what grows. Drawing from psychology, lived experience and social analysis,
the essay challenges the assumption that more focus always leads to resolution.
From anxiety loops to activism, from identity to media,
this work reveals a subtle paradox: the very effort to fix division can sometimes deepen it.
Not by intention, but by repetition.
This is not a call to care less, but to care with precision.
Because the question is not whether we pay attention...
But what our attention is actually feeding.
