One of the results of routine live is that our brain optimizes recurring activities by filtering redundant, secondary information out in order to focus onto general trained operations. During this simplification of our perception lots of information is being lost and cannot be used for further development.

How can the routine be broken up and the hidden information become visible again?
In “Understanding the Media” Marshall McLuhan is dividing between hot and cold media. "A hot medium is one that extends one single sense in “high definition”.... High definition is the state of being well filled with data.... Hot media are, therefore, low in participation or completion by the audience." A cold medium instead keeps lots of information secret and inspires the observer to compose and accomplish their individual image driven by personal experiences.
To stimulate the personal perception methods like disturbance, codification and the unusual association with a situation could be used to make the unseen, unpredictable visible. So the observer / participant could become a part of an input-output-system where he is forced to question his perception and behavior within the routine live by simultaneously providing, feeding the system with his own experience.
