quoting note1kzzโฆjt4xFirst book read in 2025: Non-Things by Byung-Chul Han.
We no longer create and cherish meaningful โthingsโ. Instead, we produce and consume data and digital information, what this book refers to as โNon-Thingsโ.
We may think that we are doing with data and information as โcollectingโ, but in reality, we are merely consuming.
We are transitioning into a non-materialistic existence, and that might not be a good thing. This is my first Byung-Chul Han book, and it is challenging me to reflect on how โnon-thingsโ are quietly replacing all the โthingsโ that has once given life depth and meaning.
(And yes, the irony of reading this on a Kindle app on my Hisense Touch isnโt lost on me.)
