text-neck is a collar piece that disrupts its wearer, helping them to avoid staying in a bad posture longer than desired when interacting with a smartphone.

This piece comments on the text-neck posture, the posture causes by addiction to smartphones when people bend their heads to look at their phones. On the back of the head, areas correspond to the locations of the lesser and greater occipital nerves. All day, people are craning their heads, hanging on the spine, putting extra weight on the spine. The piece will send messages to the smartphone the wearer uses if they stay in the posture too long.
