How To Do Nothing by Jenny Odell
After the American presidental election of 2016, Jenny Odell felt so overstimunated and disoriented by information, misinformation, and the expressions of others, that reality itself seemed to slip away. How To Do Nothing is her action plan for resistance. Drawing on the ethos of tech culture, a background in the arts, and personal storytelling, Jenny Odell makes a powerful argument for refusal: refusal to believe that our lives are instruments to be optimised. She argues that nothing can be quite so radical as doing... nothing.Jenny Odell is an artist and writer who teaches at Stanford. She has worked as an artist-in-residence at sites like the San Francisco landfill, Facebook, the Internet Archive, and the San Francisco Planning Department, and her work has been displayed all around the world.
