About this edition
Using clear, readable prose, conceptual artist and poet Kenneth Goldsmith"šÃ„ôs manifesto shows how our time on the internet is not really wasted but is quite productive and creative as he puts the experience in its proper theoretical and philosophical context. Kenneth Goldsmith wants you to rethink the internet. Many people feel guilty after spending hours watching cat videos or clicking link after link after link. But Goldsmith sees that "šÃ„úwasted"šÃ„ù time differently. Unlike old media, the internet demands active engagement"šÃ„îand it"šÃ„ôs actually making us more social, more creative, even more productive. When Goldsmith, a renowned conceptual artist and poet, introduced a class at the University of Pennsylvania called "šÃ„úWasting Time on the Internet"šÃ„ù, he nearly , and many more, ran articles expressing their shock, dismay, and, ultimately, their curiosity. Goldsmith"šÃ„ôs ideas struck a nerve, because they are brilliantly subversive"šÃ„îand endlessly shareable. In , Goldsmith expands upon his provocative insights, contending that our digital lives are remaking human experience. When we"šÃ„ôre "šÃ„úwasting time,"šÃ„ù we"šÃ„ôre actually creating a culture of collaboration. We"šÃ„ôre reading and writing more"šÃ„îand quite differently. And we"šÃ„ôre turning concepts of authority and authenticity upside-down. The internet puts us in a state between deep focus and subconscious flow, a state that Goldsmith argues is ideal for creativity. Where that creativity takes us will be one of the stories of the twenty-first century. Wide-ranging, counterintuitive, engrossing, unpredictable"šÃ„îlike the internet itself"šÃ„îis the manifesto you didn"šÃ„ôt know you needed.
