Consumption and Consciousness
This chapter examines the interplay between modern consumption, design culture, and the philosophical ideas of Georges Bataille. It critiques how consumerism alienates individuals from the true value of objects, advocating for a more conscious engagement with materiality. The discussion also relates existential and political themes, such as community and identity, to the complexities of desire and the impact of capitalist structures.
