Japanese artist Marina Fujiwara busies herself with "wasted creations" -- inventions that serve little to no practical purpose. For example, she made a pair of nunchaku that, when flipped into one armpit, take her body temperature.
For those of you working from home, she also has tools that will let you fake a Zoom loading error or, nonetheless, motivate you to keep working.
You can view more of Fujiwara's work on YouTube and Instagram.
