Exploring Perspectives on Consumerism and Creative Influence

Consumerism can be seen from different perspectives where individuals like Walt Disney and Steve Jobs are viewed not just as business figures but as artists and creators. Some people perceive Disney World or Apple products as meaningful experiences that go beyond capitalism. However, not all consumer goods are seen in the same light, as there are distinctions between products that evoke admiration like Disney's creations and those that might be perceived as inducing illicit or disapproved desires. The novel 'Ladies Paradise' explores the concept of seduction in consumerism, framing the act of seducing customers as an intriguing and somewhat illicit behavior, creating a nuanced narrative that challenges conventional views on consumerism and desire.
