So far, the musician has gotten through life without a smartphone, he says. But that will soon change – and there is a reason for that.
For the singer-songwriter Philipp Poisel (“How should a person endure this”, “What remains of us”), the years without a smartphone will soon be numbered. “Of course, I am increasingly asking myself how long this is actually still feasible,” said the 38-year-old of the German press agency.
“The day will probably come when I feel so anxious that I can no longer avoid it.” In the corona pandemic with the numerous places for scanners, in the train or with the digital vaccination pass, the pressure increases. So far, he has only had a tablet without a WiFi connection, says the Ludwigsburg, that is a kind of compromise.
Poisel has so far done without a cell phone in order, as he says, to be able to concentrate better on his own thoughts. He also uses social media as sparingly as it is possible for a popular singer with a fan base: “I don’t enjoy being active on Instagram and other social media,” said Poisel of the dpa. «I always think if there is something, I will contact you. But I can’t do anything with the speed. My rhythm is not what is required. “
