# Abstract
This workshop aims to visualize our everyday use of time; to analyze the material condition of our activities; and, finally, to rethink what are the value and values that those activities bring to the whole context.
Ps. The workshop can be done as it is, however it is warmly suggested to take a second collective moment in order to organize the workshop: UNPRODUCTIVE RESISTANCE (link).
# Tools
Tables, Chairs, Pen, 2 Printed Maps (2.MAP-01; 2.MAP-02)(link)
# Session tutorial
## Step 1: Introduction
Ask the participant to introduce themselves and to answer the following questions (each one shouldnt spend more than 8 minutes):
- How many hours do you work per day?
- During your day, are there some activities you consider as work that is not considered as such?
- If yes, are you able to quantify them in terms of time and fatigue (whether it is physical or emotional)?
## Step 2: Analyzing our 24-hour clock! (20 min.)
Split participant and ask them to fill 2.MAP-01 (link) by unpacking their everyday rhythms. Involve them to add categories whether is necessary, and to define categories with specific actions, by writing inside the slices of pie.
## Step 3: Magical discoveries (40 min.)
Put filled maps at the centre of the room and ask participants to report back what they have noticed while compiling the 24-hour clock. Guide a collective discussion asking questions around the balancing of everyday life. For instance, “Are you resting enough?”; “Is travelling to work taking too much time?”. Take a photo of all the maps.
## Step 4: Lets read (30 min.)
Start a reading group of the zine of “The Abolition of Work” Blacks book (link). Enjoy!
## Step 5: Rethinking our 24-hour clock (15 min.)
Split participants again and ask them to fill 2.MAP-02 (link) by rebalancing ideally their everyday rhythms. 
## Step 6: Lets strike! (30 min.)
Put all second filled maps at the centre of the room and ask participants to explain the reasons for their choices. Guide a collective discussion on the rebalancing of the 24-hour clock maps. This should bring to the exploration of values beyond value. Take a photo of all the second maps.
## Step 7: Conclusions (20 min.)
Ask participants how they feel about the workshop and to imagine collective strategies in order to balance their life more accordingly to the second map. Send them the two photos of the maps.
