New game:
At some point in your day, one that is slow and apparently lacking in significance, close your eyes.
Say "recording" and then open your eyes.
Now, take in your surroundings. Explore each vivid detail. Let each seemingly mundane fragment of your environment, jump out at you. One of the many uniform tiles on the floor of the bank is suddenly the most important.
Hear the suppressed turn of a revolving door, as it exchanges the stale inside air for the crisp outdoor chill.
Break up each sight and sound as it is presented to you. Isolating one moving part of the complex clockwork that the unseen tech crew carefully setup for this one scene in your life; wherein you are seen being disinterested and patiently waiting between adventures.
Glimpse the many moving parts of the nonliving pageantry; ever changing and yet same.
At a certain point you will have your fill, or the narrative you've set out on will need to be picked back up.
In either case; say end recording and then close your eyes.
The clockwork still sustains itself, even without your witnessing it. But how nice to have acknowledged it.
Then open your eyes and get on with the adventure.
