quote [ In his book, Chayka sums up this approach as: ?Your bedroom might be cleaner, but the world stays bad.? ]
It's a bit unfair that they try to mangle the art history lesson with consumerism but they have this titular premise to fulfill.
So ? the art history thing is a welcome thumb supplier and acts as a filler for most of the article (check out the murder anecdote and the Mies van der Rohe hut), but the "hollow" thing concerns the pretentious zen stuff given the same name. Bonus knowledge: Minimalist art is a pain to conserve in museums because its components age fast, just like the contemporary goods they were bound to mirror.

quote [ As the world has slowed to a crawl because of global orders to shelter-in-place, billions of humans are living in a much-reduced footprint, often confined within the walls of their own homes.

And you were trapped inside a bottle

quote [ So. This melody, which was played at some point on a real horn?well, maybe it was real; who knows??has now passed through radio waves and magnetic tape and digital memory, into the mind of a brilliant arranger and back out into the physical world?an echo in the Temple of Dendur?then through the internet and now into a neural network. ]
Geting lost in the waves of time and sound.
