Summary:
"Jenny Odell is a multidisciplinary artist and author. She holds degree in English Literature from UC Berkeley and MFA in Design+Technology from the San Francisco Art Institute in 2010. In her first book, 'How to Do Nothing,' Jenny Odell wrote about the importance of disconnecting from the 'attention economy' to spend time in quiet contemplation. In 'Saving Time, Discovering a Life Beyond the Clock' Odell took a deep dive into the fundamental structure of our society and found that the clock we live by was built for profit, not people. This is why our lives, even in leisure, have come to seem like a series of moments to be bought, sold, and processed ever more efficiently. Odell shows us how our painful relationship to time is inextricably connected not only to persisting social inequities but to the climate crisis, existential dread, and a lethal fatalism."
