Everyday Objects

Allison McBain Hudson · University Press of Mississippi eBooks · 2024

The chapter asks us to give up a traditional strategy of reading so that we may discover an understanding of the trilogy that has been in front of us all along. Rather than reading the objects of Emily’s life as symbolic, Hudson encourages us to think about how Emily’s life is shaped by the fact that in the diegetic space, these things <italic>are things</italic>. Rather than conceiving of objects as imaginary constructs, she suggests how encountering the embodied elements of Emily’s imagined world illuminates the materiality of this fictional life.

Co-opting Everyday Objects

Elizabeth Mynatt Everyday · 2000

this paper, I take an all-encompassing view of augmented reality that is often also attributed to the work in ubiquitous computing. Namely that computation pervades our everyday environments, whether visible or invisible, it is intertwined with our daily experience. From my work as an experienced researcher and a acolyte designer, I want to initiate a discussion about how we augment the physical world by first understanding how people currently use common everyday objects, and then designing new capabilities that reify and enhance these practices

Living with Everyday Objects

Yuriko Saito · 2025

Everyday aesthetics, one of the most recent subdisciplines of philosophical aesthetics, is often credited with opening the door to the aesthetic potential of a wide-range of different aspects of our lives. Its main contribution is generally regarded as challenging and expanding the scope of the dominant art-focused Anglo-American aesthetics of the twentieth century. It is more accurate, however, to characterize its contribution as restoring the original meaning of ‘aesthetic,’ focused on the sensory, and hence ubiquitous in our lives. The presumed newness of everyday aesthetics should thus be understood in its proper historical and cultural context. Aesthetic concerns with various aspects of our lives often appear in Western philosophy before everyday aesthetics; furthermore, they are prevalent in other cultural traditions.

Not Your Everyday Objects

Marcin Rychter · Eidos A Journal for Philosophy of Culture · 2024

This is a very unusual book and it is so in several different respects.Firstly, it is co-authored and that already makes it a rare bird in contemporary philosophical output.Secondly, the author duo represent different academic disciplines.Graham Harman is a philosopher devoted to developing and promoting his own metaphysical system, which he dubbed Object Oriented Ontology (OOO), whereas Christopher Witmore is an archaeologist and classicist focused on the material heritage of Ancient Greece.It is not just the fact that the book is co-authored by people with different professional backgrounds that makes it unique, but also that both authors themselves stand apart within their own fields.With his consistent focus on creating and constantly improving his own "theory of everything" while at the same time refusing to conform to either of the dominant trends in both continental and analytical philos-

Everyday objects and conversations

Arunima Bhattacharya · 2020

This chapter employs analytic autoethnography to document and interpret the affective relations between the diverse categories of identification that the author is subject to in the transnational context of the UK. It investigates the socio-cultural import of being a migrant student/academic in the UK Higher Education and critically evaluates the points of intersection between personal and institutional biases. The chapter further seeks to narrativise the process of critical self-reflection by referencing the author’s interaction with taxi drivers in the UK. The analysis draws on post-colonial criticism, affect studies and “discomfort” as a critical concept to critique the affective structures of “nation” and “nationalism” that naturalises one’s complicity in narratives of power and oppression. The chapter identifies “epistemologies of ignorance” within the context that situates the author’s south Asian identity in the transnational space of the UK and extends it as essential to interpreting the manifestations of “hostile environment” that migrant workers are subject to in the UK. Finally, the chapter proposes narratives of “discomfort” to arrive at the emotional histories that bind categories of identification to their social manifestations.
