From Non-Things to Things to Perfect Days

"Perfect Days" is a movie about a Tokyo Toilet Cleaner who is able to find peace and joy in his simple enchanted existence It's a beautiful movie with a beautiful message, Living and being in the world, what Martin Heidegger called Dasein the essence of what makes us human.

The movie has an interesting soundtrack including the song Perfect Day by Lou Reed. At the time I wrote this post there was a copy of the movie on YouTube.

The book "Non-Things Upheaval in the Life World" by the philosopher Byung Chui Han explores similar themes of how to re-enchant an increasingly abstract, lonely and unfulfilling technologically mediated life.

This person named Davood Gozli on YouTube explains it better than I can.
