Sweet dreams with Napflix, the reverse sleeper of Netflix

Sweet dreams with Napflix, the reverse sleeper of Netflix

Three o'clock in the morning and I can't sleep.My head It goes around without stopping and I'm getting on my nerves.If I could get distracted by something, something that wouldn't force me to pay close attention, that I was even bored, I would relax...Is this a problem with which you feel identified? Don't worry, for everyone who wants to snore mercilessly, Napflix has arrived .

Netflix's tiron


Anyway, the first thing we have to say is that Napflix may have never existed without the presence of Netflix , the giant of vod.Netflix is ​​that online video club that everyone talks about.He has revolutionized the way of watching television because it allows the user to make the consumption when, how and where he wants.At the thread of his power, it is not difficult to understand that initiatives like Napflix arise.


Napflix is ​​a new website that represents a parody of all that Netflix means.If Netflix enters that philosophy of "if you fall asleep you miss it", which advocates the constant interaction to be permanently attentive to all the news , which almost pushes us to be hooked 24 hours a day and invest all our time in watching series and more series; Napflix takes a bit of messing around all this urgency and claims healthy habits: how to take a satisfactory nap.


Boring entertainment



From this idea that satirizes Netflix's philosophy somewhat, we have an app that imitates its design and even the typography of its name.It has been two Spaniards who have launched this curious initiative that says collect the Longer and more boring videos of the network .Yes, the user who wants to take a big head, can put one of these contents to relax their neurons and not think of anything at all.And get a state of relaxation that leads to seventh heaven.


#QueLaSiestaTeAcompane is the curious hashtag that launches the promotion of the web.Napflix advocates boring entertainment, a concept that, in all the humor with which it is sold, is born from a rather interesting idea.We live in a society in which we are permanently stressed.Even in our free time, we feel guilty if we simply reconnect on the sofa without doing anything .Leisure should be as productive as the rest of the workday: We can do sports, crafts or study a language.Even if we simply want to watch television, we have to optimize all the resources and keep up with the fashion series, those that almost score as a social obligation when we are with friends.


Napflix is ​​configured almost as a gift that frees us from all this.We just have to feel comfortable and be very sure that the video slowly numbs us.The pieces that the platform rescues are monotonous, they have no unexpected turns and their effect It is relaxing.They vary in time between 30 minutes and 10 hours.It is a free service and does not require us to register .


The Naplix catalog



The big question is, but what is the catalog? Boring videos, yes, but what does that mean? Napflix is ​​divided into several categories, so that we choose according to our taste .We have sports, with four hours of the chess championship or the Tour de France of 1992.We have baseball, lacrosse, petanque...There is a Documentary section with the intriguing lives of the most diverse animals.Without a doubt, a characteristic that is related to the typical nap lived in our country in which we put on the TV a documentary of those leisurely and relaxing, with a wonderful voice in off that leads us to find the deepest dream.We have opera music, ballet, the New Year's Concert...We even have educational documentaries in which to learn about the Boson de Higgs, Klingon or Einstein.


And many more curious categories: video games, in which to watch a complete game of Mario; relaxing videos such as the effects of watching an aquarium or a Caribbean beach , or how a girl paints the ones, or how a sand sculpture is made, a burning fire, an hourglass whose content falls slowly but firmly.We even have religious videos like a Holy Week procession or the wedding between Infanta Elena and Jaime Marichalar.The Napflix guys also bet on the "original content," with a video they've recorded with a walk through New York City. There are all kinds of pieces for all kinds of tastes... Perfect not to get bored.No, wait, quite the opposite, in fact.


Nostalgia factor



We cannot help but realize the tremendous nostalgia factor that accompanies this initiative and that refers to something that is very popular in the Internet universe.Now we all seem to surrender to modernity, the technological vanguard, the race forward...There is also a fashion to recover the past and find that taste for vintage, kitsch and even the old.


We miss the mythical series of the 80s, the programs we grew up with and who made us as we are right now.Recovering all that nostalgia has a lot to do with the millennial generation, with Peter Pan's syndrome, with the desire to continue enjoying and laughing, even the dumbest things .Or, precisely, the dumbest things.YouTube has helped us to meet again with great friends.How many times have you sought the tune of the beginning of some cartoons or the video of a moment of a 90's show? Now everything is on the net but what remains of the non-digital past is not so much.Some masterpieces, which are part of our most everyday, and even vulgar essence, but also laughing and happy.Now, Napflix is ​​a commitment to that nostalgia and for the feeling of peace that this transmits to us.And for the horse naps that we have taken on account of so many contents.


And you, what content would you like to see on Napflix?
