Nothing is harder to do these days than nothing. But in a world where our value is determined by our 24/7 data productivity . . . doing nothing may be our most important form of resistance. So argues artist and critic Jenny Odell in this field guide to doing nothing (at least as capitalism defines it). Odell sees our attention as the most precious-and overdrawn-resource we have. Once we can start paying a new kind of attention, she writes, we can undertake bolder forms of political action, reimagine humankind's role in the environment, and arrive at more meaningful understandings of happiness and progress. Far from the simple anti-technology screed, or the back-to-nature meditation we hear so often, How to do Nothing is an action plan for thinking outside of capitalist narratives of efficiency and techno-determinism. Provocative, timely, and utterly persuasive, this book is a four-course meal in the age of Soylent. 538 $a Mode of access: World Wide Web. 650 0 $a Information technology $x Social aspects. 650 0 $a Reflection (Philosophy) 650 0 $a Attention $x Philosophy. 650 0 $a Work $x Philosophy. 650 0 $a Arts $x Philosophy. 700 1 $a Gibel, Rebecca. 710 2 $a hoopla digital. 856 40 $u https://www.hoopladigital.com/title/12350202 $y Instantly available on hoopla. $z Instantly available on hoopla. $3 URL 856 42 $z Cover image $u https://d2snwnmzyr8jue.cloudfront.net/rcb_9781684573929_180.jpeg $y Cover image $3 URL 941 $a 1 952 $l SWPB522 $d 20240229011301.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=64D5C896B77211EA8927A52097128E48Initiate Another SILO Locator Search
