Synopsis:
Concerns human interaction with everyday objects and occurrences, and how this affects the way we respond to others.

Few notes i made at british library on saturday.

-Humans of the age of affluence are surrounded not so much by other human being, but by objects.

-This blazer is for the girl who’s something of an anglophile, perhaps smitten with proust, who spends Her vacations at the shore

-Jeans moved from rural work clothes to become an emblem of urban youth reacting to authority. They were made of cotton ( vegetable) instead of wool ( animal ). Revealed the form of the body than covering it.

-House is probably the largest, most important and expensive artifact that people will possess ,perhaps buy or build. It will be the place where much of their life passes and where many of the major events Emotions and relationships of their lives will be focused.
